The work's title is vividly portrayed in the first movement, which calls for the saxes to do some real wailing! (duration - 12:20) This expressive quartet for soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones was commissioned by the Harmo Saxophone Quartet of Tokyo and is a significant contribution to the repertoire. Blending technical demands with expressive gestures, this three-movement work begins with an episode called Wailing. It has frantic chromatic sweeps that are passed between players and are interrupted by slap-tonguing and pointillistic and fragmented phrases. The slower middle section uses a gospel song style and final frenzied section includes rhythmic vocal sounds and fragmented melodies in triple meter.--The Instrumentalist\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInventory # :  48018977\u003cbr\u003e\nUPC:  73999189773\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN:  \u003cbr\u003e\nWidth:  9\"\u003cbr\u003e\nLength:  12\"\u003cbr\u003e\nHeight:  0.24\"\u003cbr\u003e\nProduct Weight:  0.7 lbs.\u003cbr\u003e\nNumber of Pages:\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boosey \u0026 Hawkes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49342649336102,"sku":"48018977","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0128\/7762\/7456\/files\/03171483-e3de-59d3-94fb-56ad94a03402.jpg?v=1722743704","url":"https:\/\/retrostarmusic.com\/products\/howling-at-the-moon-score-parts","provider":"Retrostar Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
