Original

Three Jazz Settings, Mvt. II. Soft Shadows Of The Night. Soft Shadows of the Night. Composed by Ramon Ricker. Saxophone Quartet. For Saxophone Quartet. SATB. Grade 5. Full Score and Set of Parts. Published by Advance Music. AV.7675. Mvt. II of III. This suite was inspired most notably by the saxophone quartets of Phil Woods and was written in a conscious attempt to wed certain stylistic elements of classical and jazz music. The players are not asked to improvise, but the piece does feature sections that sound spontaneous and freely created. The piece is difficult, but no more so than other quartets, like Glazunov and Desenclos, that are standard repertoire for this instrumentation. Talented high school and all college groups will find success working on this piece. Soft Shadows of the Night, features the alto saxophone in a quasi Bolero setting. The piece conveys a feeling of a big city in the tranquil pre-dawn hours - hence the title. Medium.
