Intrada- Bernhard Heiden +••.••(...)) Bernhard Heiden was born in Frankfurt, Germany on August 24, 1910. His musical training started at the age of five and he was composing short piano pieces by age six. In addition he studied theory and harmony with Bernhard Sekles who had been a teacher of Paul Hindemith. Intrada was commissioned by the National Association of College Wind and Percussion Instructors (NACWPI) and was written for saxophonist Eugene Rousseau and the American Woodwind Quintet. Its premiere performance was in March of 1970 at the Music Educators National Conference in Chicago. Intrada is orchestrated for oboe, flute, clarinet, horn, saxophone, and bassoon. This piece is one movement but is broken up into sections through time signature and style changes. The beginning of the piece starts out very slow and then starts to speed up to a faster more lively tempo. The fast pace continues until the style changes once again and the piece becomes slower and more tranquil. These types of tempo and style changes happen throughout the piece with it ending similar to the beginning, bringing the piece full circle. Sonata for E-Flat Saxophone and Piano Vivace- Bernhard Heiden +••.••(...)) Bernhard Heiden's Sonata for E-Flat Saxophone and Piano is one of the earliest major works for saxophone and is part of the standard repertoire of classical saxophone literature. It was the first piece Bernhard Heiden composed for saxophone. Sonata was written in Detroit in 1937 for saxophonist Larry Teal and was published in 1943. Heiden chose to write this piece for Teal because they were close friends and he admired his ability to play the saxophone. The first performance of Sonata took place on April 8, 1937 at a meeting of the Bohemians Club. The forms that are used in the three movements are traditional forms, such as sonata-allegro and rondo, with twentieth-century variations. There is a common underlying musical idea throughout the piece such as the intervals and ambiguity between major and minor tonality. The second movement of the Sonata is a five-part ABACA rondo form. The staccato quarter notes in the first five measures of the A theme establish the driving character of the movement. Andante et Scherzo- Eugene Bozza +••.••(...)) Eugene Bozza was a prominent 20th century French composer. Bozza was among the first composers to write music for the saxophone. This was due to the fact that the French perfected the classical saxophone technique. This particular quartet is written for soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophone. The first movement begins with a tenor solo that is then echoed by the soprano's entrance. The melodic fluency, elegant structure, and consistently sensitive concern for instrumental capabilities make this first movement representative of the impressionistic style. Caprice- Jean Baptiste Singelée +••.••(...)) Jean Baptiste Singelée was born in Brussels and was a conductor, composer, and violin player in various orchestras. He was a prolific composer and wrote many works such as two concertos and numerous fantasies for violin, other instrumental pieces and ballet music. He was a close friend of Adolphe Sax and was among those who persuaded Sax to develop the family of the four main saxophones that make up a quartet. Only he and Demersseman took an interest in each of the four instruments. Singelée wrote for all of them, leaving about twenty fantasias and competition solos for final examinations, and two quartets. This piece was written in 1862 and used for the Paris Conservatoire end of the year competition. It contains all the typical characteristics of similar set works, whereby a slow and expressive first movement with a cadenza is followed by a rapid, virtuoso movement. This work thus enabled the jury to assess the candidate's timbre, technique, and other qualities. Caprice is one of the few pieces that sounds classical in nature which is different than most of the saxophone repertoire that is more modern. This piece shows the technical abilities of the saxophone in addition to the range of the instrument.
