This book is a response to the proliferation of the usage of the altissimo register by composers and performers and is intended to prepare the advanced saxophonist with the ability to meet the demands of the modern repertoire. Etudes in a variety of musical styles, practice concepts, exercises, and a brief history are included to aid in the development of the altissimo register. In addition, this book is meant to demonstrate greater potential for the altissimo range for performers and composers.
Hailed as a “highly skillful and an even more highly adventurous player” (Washington City Paper) with “virtuosity, sensitivity, and beauty of tone” (Fanfare), Noah Getz has performed and lectured worldwide, including appearances at the 2012 Polish Woodwind Festival in Wolsztyn, Poland, the 2011 Australian Clarinet and Saxophone Festival in Melbourne, Australia and the 2011 World Harp Congress in Vancouver, Canada. A finalist in the Haverhill International Soloist Competition in the United Kingdom, Getz received a first-round Grammy nomination with the New Hudson Saxophone Quartet. His albums Crosscurrents, exploring the intersection of jazz and contemporary classical music, and Still Life, featuring works written for him, were released to rave reviews and are available through Albany Records. Getz is committed to commissioning and premiering new works for saxophone, including recent collaborations with Aaron Jay Kernis, David Amram and Ken Ueno. His premiere of in every way I remember you in 2011 at the National Gallery of Art was acclaimed as “spectacular and wonderfully provocative” (Washington Post). He has presented masterclasses, recitals, and lectures at universities and events across the country, including at Peabody Conservatory, Mannes-The New School of Music, the Aaron Copland School of Music, and the Sigurd Rascher Centennial Celebration. He is a Musician-In-Residence at American University in Washington, DC and an Artist-in-Residence at the Levine School of Music
