Bernhard Ullrich

Immagini di Grado

Suite for saxophone quartet, Opus 10

The island city of Grado in Friuli on the northern coast of the Adriatic Sea enchants visitors with its lagoon landscape, the harbor in the middle of the city, the ancient churches and, last but not least, the lush flora and fauna above and below the water. In the four movements of the suite “Immagini di Grado” (Pictures of Grado), the composer turns the scenes depicted into sound paintings.

1. Granseola e Canoce
2. La notte degli assioli
