  • Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: an Overview and Performance Guide
    NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: An Overview and Performance Guide A PROJECT DOCUMENT SUBMITTED TO THE BIENEN SCHOOL OF MUSIC IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS Program of Saxophone Performance By Thomas Michael Snydacker EVANSTON, ILLINOIS JUNE 2019 2 ABSTRACT Spectralism in the Saxophone Repertoire: An Overview and Performance Guide Thomas Snydacker The saxophone has long been an instrument at the forefront of new music. Since its invention, supporters of the saxophone have tirelessly pushed to create a repertoire, which has resulted today in an impressive body of work for the yet relatively new instrument. The saxophone has found itself on the cutting edge of new concert music for practically its entire existence, with composers attracted both to its vast array of tonal colors and technical capabilities, as well as the surplus of performers eager to adopt new repertoire. Since the 1970s, one of the most eminent and consequential styles of contemporary music composition has been spectralism. The saxophone, predictably, has benefited tremendously, with repertoire from Gérard Grisey and other founders of the spectral movement, as well as their students and successors. Spectral music has continued to evolve and to influence many compositions into the early stages of the twenty-first century, and the saxophone, ever riding the crest of the wave of new music, has continued to expand its body of repertoire thanks in part to the influence of the spectralists. The current study is a guide for modern saxophonists and pedagogues interested in acquainting themselves with the saxophone music of the spectralists.

  • Writing for Saxophones
    WRITING MUSIC FOR SAXOPHONES This is a short information sheet for musicians who wish to create clear, easy to read music for the saxophone. It is based upon my experiences as a jazz saxophone player and the common mistakes that people make when setting out their parts. It covers the basics such as range, transposition, blending, use of altissimo etc. TRANSPOSITION This section is a brief introduction to the concept of transposition. If you already understand how transposing instruments work in principal then please skip to the section entitled 'range' where you can see how to put this information in to practice for particular saxophones. Most saxophones are transposing instruments. This means that the note 'C' on the saxophone does not sound at the same pitch as 'C' on the piano. The common keys which saxophones are made in are B flat (which includes tenor and soprano as well as less common bass and soprillo saxophones) and E flat (alto and baritone, as well as contra bass and sopranino). There are also 'C melody' saxophones, which are made at concert pitch and do not require transposition, however these are less common. When a saxophonist plays a C on a B flat saxophone such as the tenor, the note that comes out sounds at the same pitch as concert B flat (B flat on the piano). Similarly, on an E flat saxophone such as the alto, a C comes out at the same pitch as concert E flat. On a B flat saxophone all the note letter names are one tone higher than they would be on the piano (i.e.

  • A Discussion of Saxophone Competitions
    A DISCUSSION OF SAXOPHONE COMPETITIONS AND THEIR REPERTOIRE by JOSEPH MASON PROUD, IV JONATHAN S. NOFFSINGER, COMMITTEE CHAIR JOANNA C. BIERMANN JENNIFER L. MANN THOMAS S. ROBINSON LEO JEFFREY WEDDLE ERIC A. YATES A DOCUMENT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the Department of Music in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2019 Copyright Joseph Mason Proud IV 2019 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This document presents competitor and repertoire data collected from four international saxophone competitions – the Adolphe Sax International Competition, Jean-Marie Londeix International Saxophone Competition, International Saxophone Competition “Josip Nochta,” and the International Saxophone Competition Nova Gorica – and evaluates repertoire choices as to how they might reveal the evolving expectations facing young saxophonists. By comparing the success of competitors performing selected works throughout all four competitions, this paper demonstrates which works are preferred by both the performers and the jury members. Works for saxophone in many different performance mediums are discussed, including saxophone and piano, with orchestra, and unaccompanied saxophone. Particular attention is paid to the rounds in which saxophonists are allowed to select any work with limited or no restrictions. A discussion of those pieces that have been the most effective works in these competition settings overall, and what these works share in common, also takes place. ii DEDICATION I would like to dedicate this document to my parents – without your support and guidance I would not be where I am today. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Alain Crepin, Marc Navet, and Princy Bourdeaud’Hui, Shyen Lee, Matjaž Drevenšek, and Dragan Sremec for their willingness to provide information about their competitions.

Establishment of the Classical Saxophone: The Evolution of Instrumental Design and Performance into the 20th Century Abstract The instrumental design of the saxophone has evolved dramatically from its original patent in 1846. Referencing instruments from the St. Cecilia’s Hall Music Museum at the University of Edinburgh, this article explores the historical origins of the saxophone and traces the evolution of its design into the 20th century. Original research was completed through analysis of unique antique saxophones at St. Cecilia’s Hall and historical source materials in order to determine how, despite its intention to be used as a classical instrument, many factors such as politics, instrument structure, finances, and musician attitude at the time of the saxophone’s invention resulted in limited classical saxophone performance in the modern day.

The band is based in Berne, the capitol of Switzerland. Some of the musicians are rooted in Jazz while others are based in classical music. In this special formation they overcome common patterns and create their own identity. From the soprano saxophone to the tubax nearly all saxophone related instruments are included. Together they add up to a pipe length of approximately 10m. Let alone the tubax - a newly constructed contrabass saxophone - measures more than 4m. The Saxophonists Daniel Zumofen, Matthias Wenger, Ivo Prato, Erwin Brünisholz and Michel Duc met each other for a first rehearsal in June 2011. Immediately, a constructive, creative cooperation was called into life. Soon after drummer Philippe Ducommun joined the band. For nine years the band was playing in this setup. In nearly ten years the band can present 100 concerts, CDs, Videos, press releases and radio shows. Schedule Soon, the band Klapparat celebrates its tenth anniversary. In 2020 the band plans its third CD production, a movie and tours in Switzerland and Russia.
