Product Description

TECTONIC Sax Quartet (Sop, Alt, Ten, Bar).

This work depicts aspects of plate tectonics. Five musical movements: 'CREEPING PLATES": very slow and ponderous music and foreboding 12-note serial progressions. HOT VENT GASES depicts the toxic bubbles rising from the ocean floor. VENT LIFE represents the weird worms, microrganisms, crabs and fish which survive there. VOLCANO music describes explosions, falling boulders and terror, and finally mourns the loss of life, devastated landscape and villages. EARTHQUAKE: the music tries to depict the swaying effect and noise, falling bricks and running feet. More mourning. Pure 12-note serial: but you need not tell THEM that.

DURATION: 9minutes
