03/23/2016 (Continuous Resonance Solo Saxophone Project)

February 11, 2018

Neil Welch Continuous Resonance Solo Project 2016

Date: 03/23/2016

Location: Practice Room C at South Whidbey High School. Langley, WA (Whidbey Island)

Instrument: Tenor saxophone

Notes:

During this improvisation I maintained a triple-tonguing technique focused around a single pitch center of Eb (quarter step sharp), with deviations in quarter steps above and below. I also interjected additional pitch material into the strains of continuous Eb, most notably the lower octave pitch near the middle of the improvisation. The room captured the resonant overtones nicely, creating overlays of the fifth above the fundamental Eb.
