Shifting Gears (2010, r.2012)

saxophone quartet


Program Notes

Shifting Gears is a fun little piece which, at the micro level, depicts a system of interlocking gears or cogwheels. For larger sections, different moods and inflections are juxtaposed immediately against one another; in this sense the title also refers to the act of shifting gears in an automobile.
