Tenor Sax in Inner Space. June 2019
This piece started out to be what I was going to call Scuba 1. I enjoy scuba diving and try to go once every year with my son. As the work evolved, I saw it differently. Another passion of mine is jazz music and in particular ensembles with a good saxophonist. For me listening to a good piece of music is seeing each instrument in the mix at its own level of the overall depth of the ever-combining piece. I see this piece as having a central figure and he is in a swirl of the music dancing to its rhythms. He is the listener who has become one with the music. He has entered his inner space of mind. He has two arms coming down to his sides and two feet a dance at the bottom. Good jazz is a rich layering of different instruments all playing their individual parts to create a greater whole. The instruments, be they piano, guitar, drums, and saxophone all have a different colors and layers in a swirling dance of life. Why “Tenor Sax,” simply because I love tenor sax most of all, both supporting and solo.
