REFLECTION

Program Notes:

Hidden Reflections for Alto Saxophone and piano explores the expressivity, agility, wide range, and rhythmic characteristics of the saxophone. The piece is in two movements: First, “The March of the _______!!!” is an impression of a grotesque march and alternates between odd and steady meters. The second movement, “The Evening of the First Snow,” is nostalgic and meditative, inspired by the falling snowflakes on a Boston winter evening, as experienced in 1996. Hidden Reflections was written for saxophonist Styliani Tartsinis, who premiered and recorded the work.
