Apollo Saxophone Quartets Bk3 AAAAorAAA

for 4 altos or 3 altos plus tenor AAAA + AAAT

Following on from the hugely successful and popular Apollo Saxophone Quartet Books 1 and 2, this book brings together once again the writing talents of Rob Buckland and Andy Scott, and introduces two new composers - Carl Raven (tutor alongside Rob and Andy at the Royal Northern College of Music, and recent addition to the ASQ line-up) and Jenni Watson who is a composer and RNCM graduate. The ethos behind this book is very much in line with it's predecessors: dynamic new compositions in a wide variety of styles, scored for four altos, (or three altos and tenor), to make them invaluable concert material for young quartets, where perhaps the luxury of a soprano and baritone saxophone is not yet available. The pieces are designed to provide the ensemble with a varied mix of styles and mood, enough to make a short concert programme from this one book, or to integrate with the previous two publications.
