“Conc
ertino Da Camera, written
in 1935 by Jacques Ibert
(1890-1962) is a small
concerto for Alto
Saxophone and eleven
instruments: Flute,
Bassoon, Oboe, Horn,
Trumpet and Strings. This
concertino in two
movements, Allegro con
moto and Larghetto ?
Animato Molto, is
dedicated to the
saxophonist Sigurd
Rascher and stands out
for its large use of the
Alto Saxophone. It can be
technically challenging
and has a strong lyrical
part. This volume is the
pocket version of the
score. Its author,
Jacques Ibert (1890-1962)
is a neoclassical
composer who won the Prix
de Rome in 1919. He
composed many symphonic
suites, operas and seven
orchestras, including
'Angelique' (1926) and
'Divertissement' (1930).
He also was in charge of
the Accadémie de
France in the Villa
Médicis (Roma) and was
later administrator for
the Paris Opera. This
concerto has some
similarities with is
Flute Concerto (1934),
also published by
Alphonse
Leduc.â€.
