The debut recording by virtuoso saxophonist Anthony Brown

includes seven world première recordings of brand new

commissioned works for the saxophone. Each work has it's own

unique sound world, offering different, exciting new duo and solo

works. The performers and composers on this disc represent some of

the major influences that have impacted Anthony's career to date,

including teachers, colleagues and friends.

These virtuosic works explore the range and characters that the 4

main saxophones (soprano, alto, tenor and baritone) have to offer.

The sound world of the contemporary saxophone is explored in great

depth, with influences ranging from jazz, film, poetry, electronic

music, and theatre. Each work was commissioned especially for this

project which has taken 5 years to complete.
