By Dmitri Shostakovich. Arranged by John Gibson. Score,Set of Parts. 15 pages. Published by JB Linear (H0.532155-SC001293779).Shostakovich's Polka is from his ballet, The Age of Gold from the 1930's. This piece has a sharp wit to it, with tense dissonances and melodies that somehow go to the wrong note along with simple naïve sections. It is only about 2 minutes long and would be a fun encore piece for a recital or concert. The setting for saxophone quartet is by John Gibson (Soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone sax). It is not fast, but has passages that can take a bit of work. A good high school group should be able to handle it.
