Saxophone
Dinner Party
By Keyna Wilkins
Regular price
$50.00
In this piece the composer has tried to explore the harmonic possibilities of such homogenous sounding ensemble by using the analogy of a dinner party in which the guests begin to have a polite conversation, which descends into argument in which they are all shouting at once. By the time they leave, however, they have found resolution. Musically the motifs are developed in an intuitive free-flowing manner, centering around G Minor.

The style is contemporary jazz, with a nod to the dissonant melodies of jazz pianist Thelonius Monk. The piece was inspired by two literary works, the classic sonnet "Ozymandias" by Percy Byshe Shelley, and the 1989 Discworld novel "Pyramids" by Sir Terry Pratchett.

Hotel Quebec Tango
By Linda Dalgliesh
Regular price
$23.00
This piece was inspired by an essay in the 1939 autobiography "Wind, Sand and Stars" of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. He recalls the miraculous survival of a fellow pilot, Henri Guillaumet, who disappeared while flying the mail route across the Andes and was given up for dead. Guillaumet had been caught in a high altitude snowstorm and forced to land in a remote crater. Hotel, Quebec and Tango are part of the phonetic alphabet (Alfa Bravo Charlie) used internationally by pilots. I am almost certain that Guillaumet's biplane would have had a call sign, and I like to imagine it contained the letters HQT.

Lazy Dog Blues
By Linda Dalgliesh
Regular price
$23.00
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." I have been imagining this poor maligned dog since my childhood typing lessons. Why has she been described as lazy? Is she old and arthritic? Or is she a young working dog at the end of a long day? Has she been rounding up sheep in the hot sun? In either case, doesn't she now deserve to walk slowly onto a cool verandah and rest in the shade, without the indignity of a rude fox leaping over her?
