Description
“French composer, Pierre Max Dubois (1930-1995) significantly contributed to the woodwind repertoire, particularly for Saxophone. Characteristic Pieces in the Form of a Suite for Alto Saxophone and Piano was published in 1962 and remains popular in the advanced saxophonist’s repertoire. Dubois’ music is characteristically light-hearted with unusual harmonic and melodic textures. The first part of Characteristic Pieces in the Form of a Suite for Alto Saxophone and Piano, To the Spanish Woman reflects Dubois’ compositional characteristics as well as elements of Spanish traditional music and a typical performance lasts about three and a half minutes. Characteristic Pieces in the Form of a Suite is essential to the advanced saxophonist’s repertoire. Dubois’ most famous work makes for an exciting and enjoyable performance for players and audiences alike.”
