Hemphill: Saxophone Sextets: Book 1edited by Marty Ehrlich
$65.00
Book 1 contains scores and parts to 10 compositions by jazz master and leader of the World Saxophone Quartet, Julius Hemphill.
Newly engraved edition. Edited by Marty Ehrlich.
Julius Hemphill formed his Saxophone Sextet in 1989, composing new music for concert performances and his celebrated dance and theatre collaborations. The wide history of African-American music is heard in these pieces, all shaped by Hemphill’s rich imagination and compositional acumen. The instrumentation is three altos with soprano doubles, two tenors, and baritone sax. The two volumes presented here mirror each other in the range of musical worlds Hemphill evoked as he explores the rich harmony and counterpoint possible with the six- saxophone choir.
