Saxophonist Amy Dickson - Philip Glass' Violin Concerto No 1. - Exclusive C Music TV video
Loading...
Uploaded by CMusicTV on Mar 1, 2010
Internationally acclaimed Australian saxophonist Amy Dickson in her music-video for Philip Glass' Violin Concerto No 1 (1st movement) . This track features on her second album called Amy Dickson: Glass, Tavener, Nyman which is available now from Sony Music / RCA Red Seal. Having arranged this 'piano' piece for saxophone, Amy then had to spend a further 6 months learning how to circular breath (a technique where you can both inhale and exhale air at the same time) in order to actually be able to play it!
This 'stripped down' video was filmed exclusively by the award winning music channel C Music TV.

Beautiful

I generally don't like philip glass but this is just good. Everytime I listen to it though I expect a baroque chord progression and it does a more modern one at the end (thats becuase I listen to Handel all day everyday). I really like this performance.

@TheGrimSim read the violin score, circular breath, and there we go!
-
@Egglay There is a school of Saxophone playing called the "French School" which emphasizes on notes and vibrato, instead of sound or excess emotions.
Actually, she sounds a lot like a violin in this arrangement (because it's transposed from Violin and also because of her technique). This is not your typical clarinet concerto
-
why play the sax, when you play the sax like a clarinet?
-
circular breathing?

I read about her circular breathing in the description, then I'm like "ORLY"
Then I watched her at 0:34.

Ms. Dickson, Is there any chance you had this arrangement published, or is there another way that I could get hold of a copy? I would love to do this on a recital. I am a saxophone student at the University of Nebraska (USA) This is a really excellent arrangement and a great job playing, such pure tone and musicality. I loved it. Thank you
