Darius Edwards - Soprano Saxophonist
Eric Reed - Pianist

*If you like this piece and would like me to arrange it for your instrument, please let me know! I’ve already arrange a score for alto saxophone and another for Bb Soprano Clarinet!*

“Where Will My Flowers Go?” revolves around the theme of unrequited love and all the emotional turmoil that comes with it. It is also a love letter to my dearest self and a reminder that no matter what, I am deserving of love and kindness. 

For those of you that were with me for my first ever Black and Boujee event, you may recognize a nod to the melody from "Take What's Yours", the piece I wrote and performed that night. For those of you unfamiliar with this event, it is an evening of celebrating Black artistry hosted by The Black Musicians Alliance, a student-led organization that I co-founded in the Fall of 2019

A few other sources of inspiration behind this piece include the music of Whitney Houston, and a poem I once wrote. I have always admired the sheer power behind Whitney's voice and how she could easily sustain notes at the top of her range. One song of hers that has especially influenced my writing in this piece is entitled "Greatest Love of All". Below, you will find the poem I wrote that led to the birth of this piece:

Where will my flowers go?

To grow
To bloom

To dance
To sing
 
To wilt
To die
 
To You?
To Me.

As always, I hope you enjoy this piece! :)

Jörg S. born in Cologne, from youth on, was fascinated by all kinds of art, so he taught himself the saxophone very early. Nowadays flutes of all kinds are also part of the equipment, as are jaw harps, percussion, bass, guitars and keyboards.
He was and is always involved in many band projects and session events.
In the 80s he was a saxophonist in the Adam Noidlt Intermission Orchestra with gigs in Berlin, Cologne, Düsseldorf and Basel. Very early on he also worked as a writer with live readings in the Cologne area and was a painter with large formats for many years, all in addition to his job as a graphic designer. Now, retired, devoted solely to music: home recording with the platform of choice, Soundcloud and global collaborations.
