He's been told there are alto and tenor saxes, and produces "...moaned in the alto and tenor registers". It's awful! "Rich with a wealth of harmonics" is laughable. "Thunder in A flat major"? Why? A "dominant chord"? Why? it would have been better to say, "Thunder", and "A faintly whispered chord". A little learning is a dangerous thing! I'll have a go: "With dark malevolence the pianist played a C major scale: its white notes rising up and up. And then - a pedal!" (Ian Banks is as bad!) | |
