| Alexander Tcherepnin: Sonatine Sportive For Alto Saxophone And Piano: Saxophone:Format : Sheet music As the title suggests this Sonatine interprets musical elements of sport. With this in mind Tcherepnine's Sonatine is a highly amusing energetic and fun piece to play for saxophonists. Russian born composer Alexandre Tcherepnine (1899-1977) moved to Paris with his family in 1921 following the increasingly hostile political environment in Russia. During WWII Tcherepnine's composing activities virtually stopped. However just before doing so he composed his Sonatine Sportive. The first movement interprets boxers with pulsating quavers in the piano partrepresenting a defence. Movement two suggests a rest that the two players take before the 'racing' third movement written in the form of a canon. With such stimulating and imaginative creativity Tcherepnine's Sonatine is essential to the saxophonist's repertoire.
