  • West Highlands Sojourn - Robert Sheldon
    Inspired by the composer's journey through the western hill country of England and Wales, this delightful piece borrows from folk melodies he heard on a river near the Scottish border. The three sections of the piece provide very effective contrast and, with Sheldon's artful scoring, this is an excellent choice for concert or contest. Splendid!

    I played this in band freshman year of high school. I’m a junior in college now. I couldn’t remember the name of this song for the life of me. I played 1st alto sax. I remember I played that mini sax solo at the end of mvmt 2 at one of our concerts and the best player in our section told me he loved it😭looking back I realize I was a lot better at sax than I gave myself credit for. I wish I had put in the work to become really good!
    Don’t be me! If you have a gift, please practice and become the best.

      absolutely love your advice, i just wish the the other clarinets in my section would give themselves credit because they help me a lot in the section even as the first chair.

      I’m playing west highland sojourn this year.
      It sounds pretty bad right now but I know for a fact it will get better.
      When I got the saxophone I immediately understood, like a little gift. I started to not practice well but I thought that I will get moved down a band since I’m in the top band right now. I got scared so I la starting to practice very very well. And I feel amazing. It’s funny how right when I decide that I’m going to try my hardest I see this comment. I love this comment. I am talking your word into consideration and I’m playing the best that I can! Thank you❤

    I’m a freshman in high-school, and I played this song this year for concert and sight reading. I almost had to play the beginning of the 3rd movement by myself because one of the other baritones broke his hand, and the band director told the other one not to play it.
