Sheet Music: ScoreDeeper : concerto for contrabass saxophone / Jim Coyle.by Jim Coyle (2024)

Product details
Deeper is a concerto for contrabass saxophone commissioned by the Metropolitan Orchestra. It was composed for soloist Michael Duke and conductor Sarah-Grace Williams. Deeper is in four movements, with the first two being played without a break. The writing for the solo instrument this largely conventional in its approach. As a composer, I wished to avoid writing a 'circus' piece for this very unusual instrument. Despite its rarity and apparent novelty, this instrument is not a freak. In the hands of as accomplished a soloist as Michael Duke, the contrabass saxophone has the capacity to be extremely expressive and to move with remarkable lightness and agility. It was these features, above all, that come to the fore in Deeper.
