Rock Steady
for alto saxophone
Rock Steady is an exploration of the intersection of virtuosity and repetitive “grooves.” Using an almost steady stream of sixteenth-notes, the saxophonist is asked to employ a variety of extended techniques, octatonic collections reminiscent of jazz improvisations, and process driven grooves to blur the line between steady pulse and wild gestures.
Rock Steady was written for Ryan Muncy through the Walden School Faculty Commission, featuring members of the International Contemporary Ensemble.
