...as he approaches I become not myself... for Alto Saxophone

The title of the work, ...as he approaches I become not myself... is a fragment from a quotation from Virginia Woolf’s The Waves. Here is the complete quotation
below:

“...As he approaches I become not myself but Neville mixed with somebody – with whom? – with Bernard? Yes, it is Bernard, and it is to Bernard that I shall put the question, Who am I?”

In this work, ...as he approaches I become not myself..., the composer focuses on things that are interwoven and that melt into and out of one another, simultaneously trying to combine different timbres and sounds that depict the process of transitioning from one sound state to another.
