Samuel Burt
Incandescent Silhouette

Rose Hammer Burt, saxophone

This piece, written for the composer's wife, is part of a larger series of short new works for saxophone focusing on controlled registral placement of pitches and the large leaps required to perform such music. Incandescent Silhouette in particular deals with quiet echoes displaced an octave from their more energetically melodic originating phrases.
