Piece: Antonín Dvořák/Bruce A. Evans — String Quartet in F major, Op. 96, I. Allegro ma non troppo
Why did you choose this piece?
We chose this piece because we thought it would be exciting to play a piece originally meant for string quartet on saxophones. We also enjoy how all the parts are very independent and the melody is constantly being tossed around between voices.
