Der erste Satz, der den Untertitel "A Little Suite For Four" trägt, zeichnet sich durch eine einstimmige Melodie in h-Moll aus. Der zweite Satz präsentiert ein Leitmotiv mit Variationen und dem Einsatz von wiederkehrenden Jazzphrasen; alle vier Instrumente übernehmen dabei abwechselnd Haupt- und Nebenrollen. Der dritte Satz ist ein balladenartiges Thema mit Sopran- und Baritonsaxophon, die ein angenehmes Gespräch miteinander führen. Der vierte Satz begibt sich auf eine fröhliche melodische Tour durch alle Saxophonstimmen nacheinander.Schwierigkeitsgrad: 4

Subtitled A Little Suite For Four, the first movement features a unison melody written in B minor. In the second movement, a leitmotiv with variations and the use of repeated jazz phrases is presented; all four instruments take turns in assuming primary and supporting roles. The third movement is a ballad-like theme featuring soprano and baritone sax sharing a pleasant conversation. The fourth movement goes on a joyful melodic ride passing through all the saxophones parts, one after the other.Instrumentation:4 saxophones (SATBar)ion of the different accents is of utmost importance. As its name suggests, the third movement called Relax is based on a ballad-like melody where the soprano and the baritone saxophones are having a pleasant conversation . Measure 25 is rhythmically complex: The baritone plays a son tumbao whereas the other saxophones allude to an Afro-style rhythm, playing in sextuplets and finally returning to tempo primo to close in a classic 2-3 son clave. The fourth and final movement, Montando en un Carrusel (Riding on the Merry-Go-Round), goes on a joyful melodic ride passing through all the saxophones one after the other; the instruments - like in the second movement again take turns in performing the main and the supporting voices. Careful attention should be paid to the correct execution of the different accents on syncopations and off-beats, especially as of measure 39. Of equal importance is the accurate performance of the Cuban cinquillo appearing in measure 37 in the tenor, in measure 45 in the alto, in measure 47 in the soprano and finally in measures 51 to 52 in all four instruments. I hope the big family of saxophone players will take pleasure in this suite!
Instrumentation:
4 saxophones (SATBar)
