Enkidu is a work for solo saxophone by Australian saxophonist, Andrew Ball. Recorded on his debut album, Forbidden Languages, Enkidu uses the technique of circular breathing to cre ate a unique masterpiece which evokes musical influences as diverse as Paganini and Dubstep. The original recording of this work is performed on Baritone Saxophone; however, this work sits comfortably on any of the saxophones. Enkidu is composed as a sequence of cell-based digital patterns and includes a series of fingering recommendations by the composer to facilitate the performance of the work. This piece is an absolute showstopper in any concert program. Listen to a recording of work, performed by the composer, in the media player below! Forbidden Languages is a suite for solo saxophones, comprising a body of work composed and recorded between 2015 - 2017. Each stand-alone ‘movement’ is informed by an arcane aspect of symbolism or mythology, within the broader context of language as an abstract, imaginary, irrational, ephemeral concept. The mission of this work is to push the capabilities of the performer, to blur the line between composition, improvisation and experimentation, to challenge the technical and expressive limits of the instrument, and to inspire further experimentation with the saxophone.
