Piano Reduction including solo part. Par DENISOV EDISON. The catalogue of Edison Denisov's works includes 16 concertos. It was a genre to which he returned time and again throughout his life, from the Concerto for Cello and Orchestra of 1972 to the Double Concerto for Flute, Clarinet and Orchestra of 1996. In Denisov's music the role of the soloist, or rather the protagonist, is extraordinarily important, not so much for its virtuosity as for its confessional character. The solo part is a monologue distinguished by poetic diction and a very personal message from the composer. The dramaturgical conception of the Concerto for Saxophone and Orchestra, a reworking of the Viola Concerto of 1986, draws on traditional sonata form, thereby reaffirming the ubiquitous classicism in Denisov's thought. In this late work, we find all the typical features of his style: sinuous melodic lines layered into dense contrapuntal textures, and an interplay of orchestral colours, with pure sonorities contrasting with complex mixtures of sounds. It is a perfect dramaturgy that governs the evolution of the music to the very end. The first movement assumes the role of a sonata-allegro, with the standard formal sections of exposition, development, recapitulation and coda. The second movement is an Adagio for strings. The third takes the form of a little contrasting intermezzo that introduces both new thematic material and a new range of colours. Here tunefulness gives way to pointillism enriched with sonic effects. The only movement with a virtuosic solo part, its nervousness and inner tension set it worlds apart from the second and fourth movements that surround it. The fourth movement assumes the traditional form of a final set of variations. It is the dramaturgical and semantic heart of the concerto. The theme of the variations is Franz Schubert's Impromptu in B-flat major, op. 142, which in this case is 'born' from the celesta as the product of a dodecaphonic string cluster. This finale represents Denisov's homage to his great mentor, Schubert's music being for him a symbol of eternal and universal beauty. 'The attentive listener', Denisov stressed, 'will recognise that the Impromptu theme is already suggested very slowly in the course of the three preceding movements, not only thematically, but also psychologically. That's what makes the appearance of the Schubert theme sound so natural.' The variations relate to the variation genre less in their form than in their spiritual and conceptual metamorphoses. It is, one might say, 'music round about Schubert'. (Ekaterina Kouprovskaia-Denisova)/ Répertoire / Saxophone Alto et Piano

Cette Sonate pour saxophone alto et piano est de structure classique. Elle est en trois mouvements (Allegro - Largo - Presto). Elle est le reflet de ce qui fait l'identité du compositeur en tant qu'artiste et en tant que personne : son double cursus, saxophone classique au CNR de Paris et jazz au CNSM de Paris, sa double culture, française et américaine. Sur le plan harmonique, rythmique et structurale, cette Sonate est très influencée par le jazz, mais l'interprétation du saxophoniste devrait adhérer à la tradition classique. Par son discours à la croisée des chemins, très agréable, très virtuose et proche des musiques improvisées, Timothy Hayward nous donne une belle pièce de concert où le mélange indispensable des qualités du musicien soliste et chambriste prend ici toute sa saveur. / Saxophone Alto En Mib Et Piano

Spring has finally arrived. The days grow longer, birds prepare to nest, trees turn green and plants begin to bloom as nature wakes up from her winter sleep. This, and the fact that the composer?s third grandson was born in the spring, were the inspiration for Spring Song.

?uvre pour saxophone alto et piano qui ne s'inscrit pas dans la tradition du jazz, mais se trouve agrémentée de souvenirs de sonorités new yorkaises . Elle met en valeur à la fois l'expression chantante de l'instrument comme sa volubilité. / Saxophone / Billaudot
