- Short Cuts (D)
D - Score
Short Cuts was commissioned by the Apollo Saxophone Quartet in 2003/4 and was originally scored for two sopranos, one tenor and one baritone. This new version, however, asks for a different scoring of three Bb Clarinets, one bass Clarinet, and one Percussionist (Vibraphone and Marimba). The work’s main purpose is to play with two possible meanings for " Short Cuts ". That is, both with the idea of sharp and cutting musical gestures and the idea of taking a different, shorter, path to reach a specific destination. But, most of all, it was written thinking of the wonderful sonority and the rare qualities of the ASQ, to whom the work was dedicated.
