Surf's up and the waves are high!!! This classic surf rock instrumental by the Ventures is for later beginners, early intermediate, with the speed providing a challenge, along with some syncopation and rhythm challenges. Transposed to key of D (Concert F), includes full piano accompaniment. This arrangement can be played with my other arrangements of the song to create your own Ensemble. The rocking piano accompaniment uses octaves and close position chords.

This is what you get when you have a surfer band sing blues. This is a great piece that has been covered by a lot of artists. In the original key, originally from their Holland LP, this song has appeared on a lot of The Beach Boys LP. It still has the typical tight harmonies The Beach Boys are known for. Duration = 3:21.

   Kaleidoscope (2007) commissioned by David Wright, was written while my wife and I were in residence at the David and Julia White Artists Colony, Costa Rica. The tropical location was stunning but , other than permitting luxurious amounts of time to work things out. it was not a direct source of inspiration for the work.

  Kaleidoscope employs the Fibonacci sequence (1+1+2+3+5+8…) to control surface rhythm and large sectional proportions. Though I am often explicitly concerned with proportion and its integration at various levels of most pieces I compose; I had never used Fib. because it seemed too easy, and I typically do not like to use processes that are external to a piece. None-the-less I really enjoyed working with the sequence and was pleasantly surprised when the last pitch in the saxophone, with a duration of 89 sixteenth notes, sounded just right.

The work is suitable for advanced performers and is 13:00 minutes in duration. Performance materials available for purchase from the publisher: mjicmusicpublishing@gmail.com

And so we come to the second-to-last movement, which is The Swan. This was the only movement performed publicly during Saint-Saëns's lifetime, as he considered the rest of the suite too frivolous, or too silly, for his career as a serious composer. Understandably so, as it is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written, depicting a swan gracefully paddling across the surface of the water, with a calm, gentle mood. Quite ironically, the piece is in G major, which has gained a completely different meaning in Internet culture. But in any case, if you'd like to perform this piece on the alto saxophone, here it is for just 10 US dollars!
