Brokenvention for Oboe, Alto Saxophone, and Piano

Brokenvention is a compositional fusion of baroque and contemporary styles. An "invention" is a short composition using two-part counterpoint, typically written for keyboard. Johann Sebastian Bach's thirteen inventions are popular exercises for keyboard students. In "Brokenvention," the two wind instruments play two-part counterpoint in the beginning and the end of the work. The invention is "broken" because the form is not an exact model of a typical baroque two-part invention. Thus we have the title "Brokenvention."
