This collection of intermediate to late-intermediate piano solos has eight stunning solos that are among the composer’s best works to date. They are reflective for the most part, full of expressive melodies and striking, original harmonies. Mr. Petot has effectively created a rich musical scene in each of these solos—musical gestures that reflect the unique character and mood of the title. Throughout the book, Petot’s immense love of nature is evident. Each solo is crafted with care and richly detailed. The style is contemporary Romantic, with hints of Impressionism, as well as ample use of 7th chords, whole-tone scales, and chromaticism. Each solo is fresh and original, evoking a singular musical scene quite vividly and beautifully.

Great fun for light concert programming!

French composer, Robert Planel (1908-1994) was the son of composer and founder of the Music School of Montelimar, Alphonse Planel. Planel junior was an exceptionally accomplished musician, which is reflected in his composition, Romantic Suite for alto saxophone and piano. The sixth movement of Romantic Suite, Song of the Muleteer is a charming piece for intermediate level saxophonists. With a typical performance lasting about three and a half minutes, Planel's Song of the Muleteer addresses a wide range, dotted rhythms, articulation, dynamics, tempo changes, key changes and variety in performance directions. Planel's Romantic Suite is an exciting addition to the modern repertoire of the saxophone and cannot be missed by aspiring saxophonists.

Alrea dy known from his previous score, Musical Escapades, James Welburn is presenting us with his new collection: a collection of waltzes. Balancing between the romantism and tenderness of Chopin and the flamboyance of a Vienesse waltz, James manages to conjure his most tuneful and memorable moments in these pieces. 3 of the pieces are inspired and named after three capital cities near the Baltic sea.
