To this day Eugène Bozza (1905-1991) remains one of the most prolific composers for wind instruments despite being a violinist himself. His Petite Gavotte for Alto Saxophone with Piano accompaniment is no exception to the composer's success. During his studies at the Paris Conservatoire Bozza won prizes for Violin conducting and composition as well as the Grand Prix de Rome. He then conducted the orchestra of the Opéra-Comique and became Head of the Conservatoire in Valenciennes while remaining a prominent composer. Composed in 1964 Bozza's PetiteGavotte addresses a variety of features of the Alto Saxophone suitable for intermediate saxophonists. As music educationalist Paul Griffiths has written of Bozza's compositions 'his works reveal melodic fluency elegance of structure and a consistently sensitive concern of instrumental capabilities.'

12 Easy Zoological Pieces. Par RAE JAMES. In 'Zoo Time!? for alto saxophone and piano, James Rae has imagined how our friends in the zoo might perform on the dance floor! This has inspired some delightful pieces such as 'Tiger Tango?, 'Rhino Rumba?, 'Cobra Calypso? and many more. But it's not just fun for pupil and teacher alike - musical styles are explored even at this early (Grade 1) stage and the student will be inspired to try and interpret the music to portray the animals as vividly as possible. Attractive, teacher-friendly piano accompaniments are provided, which include chord symbols for further musical possibilities. 'Zoo Time!? follows on naturally from James Rae's 'Child's Play? (UE21699) where all the beginners' notes are introduced one at a time, just as in a standard tutor book./ Recueil / Saxophone Alto et Piano
