Instrumental Duet Alto Saxophone,Instrumental Duet,Soprano Saxophone - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.588404 Composed by David McKeown. Jazz,Latin,World. Score and parts. 5 pages. David McKeown #5770185. Published by David McKeown (A0.588404). Bossa de BastiÃ£o is an exciting original composition by David McKeown, arranged as a duet for one Soprano and one Alto Saxophone.This duet is based on the Brazilian style of Bossa Nova which evolved in Rio de Janeiro during the late 1950s. Bossa in its purest form is lyrical song accompanied by nylon-stringed guitar. The rhythm derives from Samba but is played at around half tempo. The harmony is often complex and influenced by jazz; indeed it was the collaboration between guitarist JoÃ£o Gilberto and American Saxophonist Stan Getz that led to the huge international popularity of Bossa Nova in the 1960s and beyond.If you play to an intermediate standard and upwards, then you and your audience will enjoy this piece. Rhythms should be lightly articulated, the melody should always flow, and following the articulation in the score will help convey the style. Bossa de BastiÃ£o has a performance time of around two and a half minutes. You can listen to a full performance the Clarinet version of this duet by following the YouTube link above.There are many more top quality arrangements and compositions by David McKeown for you to browse at http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/publishers/david-mckeown/6203
