• Calligramme

by Robert Lemay. For saxophone sextet (SAATTB) featuring Soprano and Baritone. This piece employs performance spacing in the concert hall. Extended techniques include altissimo, multiphonics, slap-tonguing, and bisbigliandi. A conductor score is included with parts for this highly effective chamber work.

A Calligramme is a poem where verses are assembled to form a visual object. Guillaume Apollinaire (1880-1918) wrote several calligrammes that have remained famous [taken from preface]. Calligramme  is dedicated to Jean-Michel (Goury), Jean-Francois (Guay) and Jean-Marie (Londeix).
