Unison I

for 4 saxophones

← Back to anthology detail

Pavel Zemek (1957) (real name Pavel Novák) is also a highly individual and distinctive Brno composer. His experimentation takes the form of radical decisions and a pioneering expansion of composing technique. In his current creative phase he has been composing exclusively in strict unison and systematically exploring the possibilities of this limitation. Although he is of the same generation as the composers mentioned above, his originality has only recently been recognised and highlighted. Today his work is ever more often being played abroad.
