Composed by Felicity Mazur-Park. 21st Century,Blues,Classical,Jazz,Praise & Worship. 25 pages. Felicity Mazur-Park #844544. Published by Felicity Mazur-Park (A0.1250210).Ancient, Modern Sounds was written specifically for The Estrella Consort for the 2022 Alba Composition Festival. In this piece, I realize neoclassical elements within a post-modern aesthetic. Chorale melodies are interweaved with contemporary countermelodies to produce a modern sound world with familiar undertones. One of the highlights of the quartet is the alto saxophone cadenza in the middle. The alto saxophonist is at liberty to improvise or follow what is on the page. As you listen, imagine the piece through two different lenses, a contrapuntal lens, and a timbral lens. Through the contrapuntal lens you will see the piece gradually depart from its traditional chorale focused language. Through the timbral lens multiple sound worlds can be heard.
This piece is ideal for high school solo and ensemble competitions or performances, college ensembles, and professional players. To find out more about Felicity Mazur-Park and her compositions visit www.felicitymazurpark.com.
