The Easy Concert Pieces series for alto saxophone and piano provide easy to intermediate pieces from the Renaissance to the modern era for music lessons, concert performances or private music-making. The volumes with accompanying CD add to the not very extensive repertoire of performance pieces for saxophone. They were carefully selected according to technical and musical requirements and arearranged in three volumes according to their level of difficulty. All pieces are included on the accompanying CD as demo and play-along versions (piano accompaniment). The piano part contained in the volume is very easy so that it can even be played by a pupil, e.g. at a music school concert. Volume 1 (ED 22553) contains easy pieces which mainly range from d' to c'', occasionally even to d'''. The keys range from C to D major or the respective minor keys. This volume contains works by Charpentier, Vivaldi, Handel, Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Smetana, Putz, Moser, and others. Volume 2 (ED 22554) contains intermediate pieces ranging from c' to e''', with unusual metres and demisemiquavers appearing occasionally. Including works by Wolkenstein, Peuerl, Schein, Purcell, Telemann, Handel, Mozart, Beethoven, Gounod, Humperdinck, Elgar, and others. Volume 3 (ED 22942) - in preparation: Will contain pieces at even higher levels of difficulty and add further works to the repertoire.

A wedding without a famous wedding march - unimaginable! Wagner's 'Bridal Chorus' from 'Lohengrin' and Mendelssohn's 'Wedding March' from the incidental music of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' vie for the favour of bridal couples and wedding parties. If, however, the music shall be festive, Mendelssohn's background music for the wedding ceremony remains first choice. In order that the march cannot only be performed with the organ but also with a melodic instrument with piano (or organ) accompaniment, the present editions provide easy-to-play arrangements.

Mit einem Paukenschlag wurde die Musikwelt auf Erik Satie (1866-1925) aufmerksam: Als am 18. Mai 1817 sein Ballett 'Parade' uraufgefuhrt wurde, kam es zum Skandal. Die Produktion, an der auch Sergei Djagilew mit seinen 'Ballets Russes', Pablo Picasso (Buhnenbild und Kostume), Jean Cocteau (Handlung) sowie Leonide Massine (Choreographie) beteiligt waren, entzweite die Pariser Musikwelt, machte den Komponisten aber weithin bekannt. Satie, der kaum eine fundierte musikalische Ausbildung genossen hatte und fast zeit seines Lebens in Paris lebte, entwickelte einen neuen musikalischen Stil, in bewusster Abkehr vom 'Wagnerisme' seiner Zeit. Klassische Formmodelle, neue Harmonik, Leichtigkeit im Stil, Meditatives und Clowneskes verschmolzen originell. Zum Musterbeispiel dafur sind seine '3 Gymnopedies' von 1888 geworden, deren erste hier fur ein Soloinstrument mit Klavierbegleitung arrangiert wurde: Das Musizieren dieser beruhmtesten Miniatur von Satie wird damit auch Nicht-Pianisten ermoglichst - die einfache Spielbarkeit erlaubt den Einsatz auch fur padagogische Zwecke.

Szelenyi (1904-1972) studied with Kodaly and later taught at the Academy of Music and the Conservatory in Budapest. He chiefly wrote chamber music and material for his students. Simple, chordal streams in the piano accompany a rhapsodic, improvisatory saxophone part, strongly influenced by Eastern European folk music.
