Rhapsody for Baritone Saxophone & Full Orchestra by Mark Watters
Zachary Lewis performs Rhapsody for Baritone Saxophone alongside the University of Oklahoma Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Dr. Jonathan Shames. March 1st, 2019.
Many thanks and appreciation to my Saxophone Professor Dr. Jonathan Nichol. This performance would not have been possible without his many years of dedicated mentorship, technical and classical expertise, and unwavering commitment to his students. I can not say thank you enough, Dr. Nichol. I would also like to thank Mark Watters for composing such a beautiful piece for the Baritone Saxophone. This piece brought and still brings me great joy with every listen. I hope it will continue to do the same for others!

This piece truly shows the beauty of the Baritone Saxophone that is often over looked. Mr Watters brings out the best of Baritone Saxophone in this piece! I am in love with it and just about dedicated my junior year of high school preparing the piece. I hope Mr. Watters writes more Bari Sax literature to show the world what this instrument is cable of of!

    As a fellow saxophonist, I can't imagine how long you must've worked on this. Simply amazing.

    How long did it take for you to finally get this piece situated to a performance level? I'm really hoping I can play with my high school highest band next year as a junior!

      This piece took me no more than 2 months to learn and have performance ready. I have performed this piece many of times at different competitions and concerts. The more you perform the piece, weather its "performance read" or not, the faster you will learn and become more comfortable with the piece. Best of luck!

    Damn, just mind blowing. Tone, articulation, technique...What I was most impressed by was your projection, I've never heard a Bari sax cut through a band like that!
