Summary:

"The composer describes Gaze as "something of a song without words," in which "the lyrical, somewhat poignant, melody is set to the reverberant, slightly hazy background of a piano motif." Composed for the duo of John Sampen and Marilyn Shrude, Gaze is a reimagining of an excerpt from the composer's Under the Sun's Gaze - Concerto da Camera III for 9 players. The saxophone part is lyrical and within the instrument's standard range, making this music in the reach of dedicated students as well as professionals." -- Publisher's note from back cover.
