- Abstract
- Throughout history, advances in technology have impacted classical saxophone repertoire. As new electroacoustic tools for composition were created, classical saxophone repertoire showcasing these new creative technologies also emerged. Many of these works omit technical details, however, and instead rely on a performer’s technological knowledge to fill in the gaps. Because of this, performers without the prerequisite technological experience can feel intimidated and shy away from electroacoustic saxophone repertoire. Performance of this music plays an important part in its preservation, and this project is designed to encourage performance of electroacoustic saxophone works. The opening portion of this essay outlines important developments in electroacoustic technology, key electroacoustic works, and how those technologies intersected with saxophone repertoire. This is followed by a thorough guide that breaks down how to approach electroacoustic works and lowers the barrier of entry to electroacoustic saxophone performance.
