A Conductor’s and Performer’s Guide to Steven Bryant’s Concerto for Alto Saxophone - Chester Jenkins

64 second movement, Lulloff improvises until about measure 77. In the following entrance, the soloist plays along with the saxophone section, so while the improvisation ends, the feel and style needs to maintain through this section. While Lulloff has improvised over the aforementioned sections in the second movement, there are two places in the score where improvisation is specifically called for: the cadenza in the second movement at measure 132, and measures 74 through 89 in the third movement. This presents opportunities to the saxophonist comfortable with improvisation to make this work personal. Figure 43. Concerto for Alto Saxophone 3 rd movement, measures 73-91. Chord changes given in solo part, with cues from ensemble.
