Rickards: Elegy - Saxophone Ensemble

5sax/SSAAB/SAAAB

This is a slow and expressive piece reminiscent of a 1970s film theme. Although a saxophone quintet would be ideal, the instrumentation is flexible: parts 1 & 2: soprano/or alto, parts 3 & 4: alto/or tenor, part 5: baritone – also a Bb part and C part for any bass instrument. An optional drum part is included as well as instructions for a keyboard with pre-set rhythms, also optional.
