Rock Us
- Composed
- 2012
- Instrumentation
- Soprano Saxophone, Duo
- Publisher
- Reed Music
Written in 2012 for Kenneth Tse as a companion to the solo Rock Me!. Cockcroft had two sopranos in mind but says other pairs of the same saxophone work too. One player bends pitch around a melody while the other holds an unstable drone, and the piece leans heavily on slap tonguing (quasi, reverse and unpitched slaps). About 9 minutes.
