| In this lecture-recital, composer-saxophonist Eric Honour briefly discusses the maturation of both the saxophone and electroacoustic music in general, and the opportunities for musical exploration it presents to the composer and performer. He discusses and performs three 21st-century works for saxophone and electronics. Each of the pieces makes extensive, musical use of what were recently considered "extended" techniques on the saxophone, and similarly draws upon multiple electroacoustic techniques and approaches, guided by musical, rather than technical or investigative, concerns. |
