More information
The work “Point of Light” for alto saxophone and strings by Christopher Greco is structured into three parts, continuously performed (15 minutes). There are elements of western music traditions, non-western influences, and contemporary music traditions.
One part has the option of utilizing the saxophone intersecting with technology, an electro-acoustic modification (laptop with Max7). Depending on the performance environment, the technology can be included or excluded. My suggestion for this proposal and venue that it be excluded.
