Parabolisms, for alto saxophone and piano, derives its title from the word parabola, the actual shape of the bore of the original saxophone. The various sections of the composition feature the saxophone in a wide array of roles. From an expressive section in the lowest part of the range to fast and furious altissimo writing, it is a work that demands excellent technique, control, and musicality from the saxophonist. The work, however, is not for saxophone with piano accompaniment, but is rather conceived as a duo for both instruments. In fact, the composition was written for saxophonist Richard Scrugss who, along with the composer, form the Duo Parabolique et d’ivoire (Garber-Scruggs Duo).
