This written component functions as an academic addition to my Senior Saxophone Recital. It includes a description of how the program was selected, a brief look at the pieces and their composers, a reflection on the preparation required, and some closing thoughts on the final performance itself. There is much more that goes into a musical performance than most listeners realize. The goal of this thesis is to reveal some of what is not necessarily discernible from simply attending a performance. A DVD of the performance has been included.
