Scholars and professional saxophonists regard the compositions for saxophone written during the inter-war period (1918-1945) to be the foundation of the modern saxophone repertoire. However, many works composed during the third and fourth quarter of the twentieth century surpass those of the previous period and clearly establish a new standard of writing for the modern saxophone. This new standard of classical performance practice for the saxophone represents an evolution in technique and sound. This study examines the composition Notturno (1981) for saxophone and piano by the American composer Steven Stucky. The express purpose of this study is to elicit a greater understanding of present-day saxophone performance practices by examining a work that contains quintessential characteristics of the new modern performance practice standard. Specific performance techniques contained in Notturno are briefly contextualized historically, and described in detail. Performance suggestions are also offered to assist the performer in realizing those techniques.
