Program Note:
The Water Dance draws inspiration from the rich tradition of Albanian folk music. Traditional melodic fragments and quotations are woven into the contemporary musical language of the work, creating a dialogue between cultural memory and present-day expression.
The work explores the idea of water as a metaphor for movement, transformation and continuity. The fluid interaction of the four saxophones creates shifting layers of sound, while the embedded references to Albanian folk melodies connect the music to a broader sense of cultural memory and identity.
The Water Dance receives its world premiere on 1 October 2026 at the Glasgow Art Club, Scotland, performed by The Scottish Saxophone Quartet, as part of the Global Composer Project “Café Gherkinforke.”
