Crossover Suite No. 1 comprises of five stylistically very diverse movements. 1. Introduction: A brisk opening leads to a bass groove on baritone saxophone. Various animated stylistic elements such as finger snaps are contrasted with 'straighter' elements familiar from march music. 2. Viennese Waltz: A waltz in a minor key, with the characteristic and unmistakable accompaniment in the Viennese style. 3. Roundabout: Roundabout is a rondo with recurring motifs and a point of rest in the adagio. 4. Stomps and Claps: As the name suggests, the work is performed with the help of hands and feet. Body percussion alternates with technically demanding passages. 5. Finale: A rapid final movement with a dolce middle part leads to a furious closing section with changes of meter and some dynamic surprises. Each movement can also stand on its own, but when performed as a complete suite this compositition shows off the full breadth and capability of a saxophone quartet.

Lá szló Dubrovay's work, written in 2006, on the 250th anniversary of Mozart's birth, is a salute of a 21st-century composer to one of the greatest geniuses in the history of music. The composer builds his original ideas on one of the best-known melodies of The Marriage of Figaro (Figaro's aria: ''Non pi? andrai, farfallone amoroso''). The series of variations on the theme of the aria is created by the involvement of special instruments, and by fully harnessing their technical abilities, while Dubrovay's hallmark of a perfect balance and peculiar compositional tone is realised on an exceptionally large orchestra. The work is suited to illustrate the potentials of crossovers between different periods in the history of music, but it can also be played at a festive, thematic concert.
