Program Notes:
inertia is the first in a series for saxophone (or multiple saxophones) that take their names from the Newtonian Laws of Motion. The name, inertia, is derived from the first of these laws, which basically states that an object in motion will remain in motion unless an external and unbalanced force acts upon it.
