Ho's Whimsical Sketches of Fanciful Birds is ideal for saxophonists looking for an adventurous and colourful recital work. It is comprised of five short movements, each taking inspiration from a different bird species as imagined through the lens of the composer's childhood. The combination of expressive pitch bends, honks, frenzied gestures and colourful harmonic clusters throughout the work makes for a playful, energetic and virtuosic addition to any post-graduate or professional performance.
