From the Darkest Place (2021)
Concerto for Baritone Saxophone and Wind Ensemble
About the Project
From the Darkest Place is a grade 5 concerto for baritone saxophone and wind ensemble.
Those of you that know me well know of my love for the baritone saxophone. Throughout my undergrad, I was obsessed with the instrument - in love with its diversity as a solo instrument, and determined to one day create repertoire that showcased it. I knew that when I finally decided to compose my first concerto that it would be for the baritone sax.
From the Darkest Place has been marinating in my mind for quite a while, and I realized recently that now was the time to get it out. The final result will be a 15-18 minute, grade 5 work for wind ensemble consisting of the following movements:
I. The Darkest Place
II. Search for Light
III. No Way Out
