Arachnophobia - fear of spiders - is the title of one of Maxime Aulio's first compositions for saxophone quartet (SATB). It is a simple musical amusement and a humorous allusion to the composer's fear of spiders. Come forth intrepid saxophone players!

Arachnophobie betekent: ‘Angst voor spinnen'...! Het is de welluidende titel van het nieuwe werk voor saxofoonkwartet van Maxime Aulios. Ook de afzonderlijke delen hebben natuurlijk toepasselijke titels. Zo passeren Spinnendans, Marsvan de vogelspin en Zwarte Weduwe allemaal de revue. Bang voor spinnen? Na het horen van dit prachtige werk vast niet meer!

Arachnophobie - Angst vor Spinnen - ist der klangvolle Titel einer von Maxime Aulios ersten Kompositionen für Saxophonquartett. Mit einem Augenzwinkern bezieht er sich darin auf seine eigene Angst vor Spinnen. Keine Angst vor diesem anspruchsvollen Werk sollten Saxophonisten haben: Die Mühe lohnt sich!

Arachnophobie, la phobie des araignées, est le titre d'une délicieuse composition en trois mouvements (Danse d'araignées - Marche de la mygale - Veuves noires) de Maxime Aulio, écrite pour quatuor de saxophones. N'ayez crainte, cette œuvre qui ne vous piquera pas, vaut la peine d'être jouée.

L'aracnofobia, ovvero la paura dei ragni, è il tema di questo brano per 4 sassofoni (SATB) di Maxime Aulio. Anche i titoli dei tre movimenti fanno riferimento ai ragni: La danza dei ragni, La marcia dei ragni, La vedova nera. Un brano esigente, ma che i sassofonisti non devono temere. Anzi, in concerto proporranno una musica nuova ed accattivante!
