By Christopher Frost. Composed by Christopher Frost. Arranged by Christopher Frost. This edition: pdf, streaming. Chamber, Contemporary. 16 pages. Christopher Frost #1065405. Published by Christopher Frost (A0.1488516).Runaway Steam Train Boogie is a fun programmatic saxophone quartet (SATB) illustrating a steam train on its runaway journey. Air blown through the instrument whilst moving the fingers depicts the release of steam at the start of the train's journey soon followed by the whistle portrayed through lip scoops. The melody line is shared between soprano and alto saxophones with the tenor and baritone saxophones characterising the train engine with the opening section outlining a 12-bar blues sequence. The tenor saxophone takes up the mantle carrying the tune through a later minor section. The train gathers pace throughout the piece arriving at 220BPM in a final section flourish. Tempo markings can be adjusted to suit the ensemble. Dare you go any faster?
This piece is also available as a saxophone octet (SSAATTBB).
