A major addition to the saxophone concerto repertoire, Zwilichs three-movement work is inspired by her early experience playing in big bands, along with a love of rich textures and driving rhythms interrupted by striking silences. The centerpiece slow movement is scored for only the soloist and the ensembles sax section, with all other players tacet. A large-size full score, and a solo part with piano, are available separately. The US Navy Band's world premiere may be viewed at www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzRz2tZXZBA&t=688s
