Romantic Pieces - Alto Saxophone/Piano
This Collection of works for alto sax and piano represents a fine collection of elegant classical masterpieces by such renowned composers as Gluck, Rachmaninov, and Schubert, combined with compositions by their living counterparts Morgan, Raman and Taylor. A "musical marriage" has been created on this album, combining works by some of history's greatest musical masters with contemporary prolific composers writing for the saxophone. These timeless works highlight the tonal beauty, sonority, color, and expressive qualities inherent in the saxophone, which has the ability to sound at times like a mezzo-soprano, violinist, cellist, or flutist.Listen to and study the complete versions performed by Mr. Banaszak accompanied by virtuoso pianist Stuart Raleigh, then you take center stage and play the solo part with Mr. Raleigh! This album also includes complimentary downloads of the piano accompaniment score for your performance needs.
