Hard Classical Tenor Peice??

Hello. I am looking for a tenor peice that sounds really hard. I need it to be somewhat slow and full of emotion. No real other limitations. I just need it to sound hard (wheather it is hard or not doesent matter) and it is slow and full of emotion. Thank you in advance

    lmao i haven't heard anything about this song but y private teacher told me to get it and i did. and well quite frankly it pisses me off if ne1 can find a recording for it let me know. the Worley Sonata for Tenor saxophone is slow and i guess u can find emotion in it and pretty difficult if u beside take all the alltissimo parts up.

      I found a recording of all three mvt's on www.reedmusic.com/audioindex/w.html but it on an alto. How high does the altisimo go?

          Unless you're James Houlik "classical tenor" is an oxymoron!

          That's a shame too...it's such a beautiful instrument in that genre.....

          Classical tenor is not an oxymoron! DiPasquale Sonata is fantastic, and pretty damn difficult.
