Description
Composed by J.S. Bach originally for flute and piano, this edition of 4th Sonata was arranged for alto saxophone in E-flat and piano by Marcel Mule. Its difficulty would fit the skills and abilities of intermediate players. in terms of composition, this piece was created in three different sections: the first one is divided into three parts (Andante with a tempo at 96, Allegro at 116 and Adagio at 72) followed by Minuet and Minuet 2. Marcel Mule (1901-2001) is one of the greatest French saxophonists, renowned worldwide for his work on the classical saxophone repertoire. He was teaching his students how to obtain a good quality of sound and believed it was dependent on the embouchure, the emission, the mastery of vibrato and thus of breathing.
