5 Saxophones AATTBar Conductor Score & Parts

The so-called "Zwiefache" is the only Bavarian-Austrian folk dance which permanently alternates between different meters. The rhythmical flow of this piece - mainly determined by the baritone saxophone and both tenor saxophones – has to be maintained without letup. Its dance-like nature must constantly be felt.

This is music of the cheerful kind; therefore, as is the case with ragtime, it is not necessary to imbue it with additional joyfulness.
Jazz sound and jazz phrasing are essential to its performance.
