opus 109
14 years ago
hey there!
i decided on a song to play in the summer i think...
it's Saxophone Concerto Op. 109 by Aleksandr Glasunov.
im very excited to try it actually.
it looks kinda difficult but not too bad. if i find it too easy by january i'll search for another piece however. im still feeling down about that recording....i seriously CAN play better than that i just think it might've been nerves over it being the first time recording. i may record some jazz later when my nerves die off.
the concerto should show my playing off well enough though.
in like may when i have it mastered i'll record it. till then i'll record my pleasure pieces like blue monk, blue bossa, or other classical pieces/ jazz pieces. i think im gonna just focus on the sax. it's what i enjoy playing, well when it's something challenging and fun. totally gonna have to redo he's a pirate...i'll do that after church...
when at camp i probably won't play the whole 13 minute concerto. just an excerpt. just curious, whats the max time limit to a song on here? would hate to break it up into different parts but if i must xD best way to do it would split it up by section...allegro moderato, then allegro scherzando , then Come Prima, then andante sostenuto, then piu moderato, to holy crap theres a lot of parts. i'd divide it into about 6 parts of roughly the same length. 2 minutes a pop almost. i was surprized to see he's a pirate be almost 2 minutes long. again ima have to redo it. or maybe i should just move on?
really excited to play the concerto, this is just what i needed. hoping for a pocket saxophone and some sheet music for christmas!
