Description
Saxiana studio, the latest addition to the Saxiana collection, offers eight highly expressive and inventive pieces, brimming with lift and great character. Intended for intermediate and advanced students (mid-C2 and upward), these original 'etudes' remain true to the initial objective of the collection and greatly enrich the saxophone repertoire.
Eight distinct musical languages will help enhance the young musician's:
- Creativüy with American composer Lisa Bielawa's What I did Over Summer Vacation,
- Playful spirit with ]ean-Bapiste Robin's Click Time and jean-Denis Michat's Sans peur et sans reproche,
- Rhythmic drive with Dutch composer Arnold Marinissen's Papa Westray,
- ]azzy bluesy feeling with Michael Alizon's Yellow Blues and Franck Tortiller's On Line,
- Dramatic expressivity with Benoît Menut's monologue I Am,
- French-style virtuosic phrasing with Karol Beffa's Un serpent qui danse.
Beyond their pedagogical aspect, these fun-to-play pieces are also perfect concert miniatures.
