Joshua Haugen, Baritone Saxophone (live performance @ Michigan State University, October, 19th, 2021)
"Reconstruction (1865-1877)" is a work for solo saxophone written in the late winter and into early spring of 2021, written in conjunction with and premiered on Alto Saxophone by Michael Keeler on April 15th, 2021 (a recording of the premiere can be found here: • Reconstruction (1865-1... ). Impetuses for the work stem from a few different strains of thought, the Black Lives Matter Protests and Demonstrations of 2020 being the primary obliging force, also to which this work is dedicated. In this work, I not only wanted to provoke the audience with a sonic representation of this era of American history, but offer a lament for the miscarriage of justice that lingers still.
