Saxophone Concerto Three Mathematical Diversions by Cheryl Frances-Hoad Alto Saxophone - Sheet Music
By Cheryl Frances-HoadCheryl Frances-Hoad's concerto for saxophone, composed for alto saxophone, percussion and strings, inspired by various cutting edge mathematical principles which Frances-Hoad's friend Professor Yang-Hui He told her about during her time as Visiting Fellow in the Creative Arts at Merton College, Oxford. Movements: I - The search for ein stein - A new shape called an einstein has taken the math world by storm. The craggy, hat-shaped tile can cover an infinite plane with patterns that never repeat. II - Elliptic murmurations - Elliptic curves are mathematical curves resembling a boomerang that have significant applications in number theory and cryptography. In certain conditions, they combine in ways that look like starling murmurations. III - The theories of everything - Mathematicians are searching for a way to unify all known physical phenomena in the universe into a single, coherent framework.
