CONCETTO SPAZIALE by Robert Lemay (RESOLUTE PUBLICATIONS) Sx Chamber

by Robert Lemay. Trio for 3 alto saxophones, dedicated to Echo Rogue Saxophone Quartet. The piece is an homage to the Italian artist Lucio Fontana, who is known as the founder of Spatialism.

Consistent with his oeuvre, Lemay incorporates elements of concert hall spacing and non-traditional effects in the piece, including bisbigliandi, slap-tonguing, stomps, breath-effects, and altissimo. The piece, as described in the video link below, requires two triangles or other metallic percussion instruments of equal pitch. The piece is designed for 3 alto saxophones of equal importance.
