The composition is built in three parts and an epilogue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first part (EXPLOSIONS) represents the power of big explosions and sound bursts. Rising melodic figures in the saxophones are accompanied by vehement percussion.\u003cbr\u003eThe second part (IN THE MOOD) is a more introspective part with references to the jazz and a mainly vertical, harmonious sound. Initially the saxophone- and percussion quartet play the same rhythmical patterns which gradually develop in different outcomes.\u003cbr\u003eThe third part (DANCE!) refers to different rhythms and musical styles from the world music. It is a virtuoso part that goes to the extreme technical limits.\u003cbr\u003eThe epilogue (REFLECTION) is the part where all energy is channeled and everything slows down gradually.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstrumentation:\u003cbr\u003eSaxophone Quartet - soprano, alto, tenor, baritone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePercussion Quartet:\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 1 - bass drum (on stand), 3 toms (high tuned), 2 African slit drums, trash can, 3 metal blocks, 3 suspended cymbals (large, medium, small), small sizzle cymbal, tambourine (small)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 2 - bass drum (on stand), 3 toms (medium tuned), 2 African slit drums, trash can, 3 metal blocks, 3 suspended cymbals (large, medium, small), small sizzle cymbal, tambourine (small)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 3 - bass drum (on stand), 3 toms (high tuned), 2 African slit drums, trash can, 3 metal blocks, 3 suspended cymbals (large, medium, small), small sizzle cymbal, tambourine (medium)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlayer 4 - bass drum (on stand), 3 toms (medium tuned), 2 African slit drums, trash can, 3 metal blocks, 3 suspended cymbals (large, medium, small), small sizzle cymbal, tambourine (medium)","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43804980084790,"sku":"NO13499A","price":13.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/henderickx-fireworks-sts-p-ssx-asx-tsx-bsx-electronics.jpg?v=1773456869","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/fireworks-henderickx","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
