Deliverance (2009)

Commissioned by
Assembly Saxophone Quartet,
Columbia, SC

soprano, alto, tenor, baritone saxophones

Duration: 11 minutes

Deliverance is sometime spacious, sometimes lyrical, sometimes percussive and sometimes sentimental. Motives are passed seamlessly from one instrument to another, treating the quartet as an ensemble of one.
