Romance and Gigue, Op. 27 (1908), Norman O'Neill (1875 1934), AATB Saxophone Quartet.
Norman O'Neill was a British/Irish composer who wrote theater works but also published a small amount of orchestral and chamber music pieces. Romance and Gigue was published in 1908 as Two Little Pieces (Deux Petites Pieces), Op. 27 for piano. The first movement, Romance is in 6/8 time with a flowing melody and gentle syncopations throughout. The second movement, Gigue, is a lively dance that bounces the melody from instrument to instrument with the middle section featuring the bari sax. Performance time is about 3.5 minutes for both pieces. Saxophone-friendly keys, a moderate range in all the parts, and clear rhythms make this a good piece for intermediate players or new quartets. Dynamics and a few tempo changes give a bit of challenge.
