About The Piece

I composed this piece originally with my Soprano Sax and struggled with what key to put it in. I then transformed it into a piece for my graduate recital — for Soprano Sax, Clarinet, Harp, 2 Violins, Cello, Acoustic Guitar, Upright Bass, and Cajon. From there, it transformed into a piece for the ZB5.
