Description
Stacy Garrop's music is deliciously dramatic even when there is no story being told. in setting three desserts to music, there is structural counterpoint between the elements of the Key Lime Pie, while the saxophonistic expressions of Salted Caramel Gelato and Chocolate Lava Cake are dripping with descriptions. To reach a full spectrum of sonorities with an unaccompanied alto saxophone, Garrop employs the full register, including idiomatic climbs into the altissimo. The 13-minute work is a showcase for advanced performers.
