What is Dressage

I was walking by a TV that had the 2016 Summer Olympics playing, and there was an odd sport on where people were walking funny and sweating buckets. I found out that the sport was called race walking; it was one of the strangest things I've seen for a sport. I couldn't understand why they just didn't pass each other in what seemed to be an odd jog around the track. The more I found out about race walking, the more interested I became in finding out about other odd Olympic sports.

I came upon dressage; what an absolutely bizarre sport, packed full of neo-colonial tripe. Right away, I thought of the idea of juxtaposing my saxophone to the steps and movements of the horse. Some of the music the horses were dancing to was awful, in my opinion. Could I take the nature of the horses movement and translate it to free-style saxophone audio?

I present to you Dressage.
