Product Description

The Devil His Due is a response to saxophonist Peter Verdoncks love for Death Metal Music.  Not being tuned into that kind of rock, I imagined what it night sound like if written for saxophone and piano.  As a starting point, I began with the lowest, most raucous sound I could imagine for the combination of bari and piano.  From there, I organized the piece numerically around occult numbers, all the while emphasizing the devils interval, the tritone, and the muscular sound of metal power chords made of fifths and octaves.  The appeal of writing "devil" music has appealed to composers since at least the Romantic era (composer/violinist Niccolo Paganini even tried his best to look devilish), and my piece is an attempt at the same.
