Very fun music! Really nice structurally and harmonically. But remember to let your players breathe.

groovyyyy

[@LeotheTiger1234]

Some people don't like the sounds of the saxophones on MIDI because it sounds nothing like actual saxophones. I think with the new Muse Sounds fonts you used here (if that's what you did), it sounds closer to the real thing.

[@RommelLeiro]

Show! O resultado sonoro é bom, mas eu daria mais tempos de pequenas pausas pros músicos respirarem

[@C4Fey]

I absolutely LOVE it! What’s the key, is it a harmonic minor?

[@musicalnature1905]

Primarily D Minor with a few harmonic and melodic minor runs alongside a few chromaticisms

[@mudocomoborboleta]

1:14 destiny's child survivor.

[@renevanputten4339]

Can I get this wonderful arrangement for playing this with our own Quartet?

[@musicalnature1905]

Unfortunately I have misplaced the parts. Once I find them, I’ll post it back onto MuseScore for everyone to use

[@Jwellsuhhuh]

@@musicalnature1905not sure if this arrangement is ready for live play yet. As many have mentioned, a lot of parts are fast, demanding, and don’t have breaks in-between for breathing. It’s still technically possible to play it in its current state but some notes will be cut short or missed depending on when the players choose to breathe. Consider also adding slurs for phrasing (this will also help with air economy) and don’t be afraid to add solos or breaks for specific instruments. It diversifies the musical texture and can make the piece more dramatic and varied.

[@matthewsinopoli-smith2406]

Hey Hey Hey! Any update on the parts? My sax quartet at my HS is very fond of this piece! Thank you!@@musicalnature1905

[@daanaldhairgomezmozo5983]

[@musicalnature1905]

Unfortunately, while switching computers I lost that sheet music.

[@daanaldhairgomezmozo5983]

@@musicalnature1905 What a bad new. It is a very good piece and I hope you can recover it

[@Max-ef9td]

Can you reupload this to musecore please?

[@musicalnature1905]

Once I find the parts for them I will get it back online

[@sghg]

What is the instrumentation for this?

[@linguiniinabowl8966]

I'd assume sop sax, alto sax, tenor sax, bari sax. Which is the traditional sax quartet

[@musicalnature1905]

Soprano Alto Tenor Bari is the instrumentation
