Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was paid three guineas for the publishing rights to his Suite de Pièces by Schott & Co. London on 24 December 1892 when the composer was just 17 years old. In the following year the work was published by Schott Music's German office in versions for both violin with piano and violin with organ. Coleridge-Taylor was born in London and brought up in Croydon. He learnt to play the violin, was recognized as a child prodigy and at 15 was awarded a scholarship to study at the Royal College of Music with Charles Villiers Stanford, where he was a contemporary of Holst and Vaughan Williams. Coleridge-Taylor described himself Anglo-African and, despite support from his colleagues, faced racism throughout his whole career. In spite of this prejudice and his tragically early death in 1912 aged just 37, he enjoyed great success during his lifetime and his music was performed at the Proms no less than 116 times between 1898 and 1939. In contrast, since 1940 his music has only been heard there on eleven occasions. Like many works, at some point in the past Suite de Pièces became out of print. Schott Music is very proud to present this new modern performing edition of the version for violin and piano. Errors and inconsistencies from the first edition have now been corrected.

“French composer Pierre Max Dubois (1930-1995) significantly contributed to the woodwind repertoire, particularly for Saxophone. Characteristic Pieces in the Form of a Suite for Alto Saxophone and Piano was published in 1962 and remains popular in the advanced saxophonist's repertoire. Dubois' music is characteristically light-hearted with unusual harmonic and melodic textures. The second movement of Characteristic Pieces in the Form of a Suite for Alto Saxophone and Piano, To the Russian Woman reflects Dubois' compositional characteristics as well as elements of Russian characteristics, with a typical performance lasts about two and a half minutes. Characteristic Pieces in the Form of a Suite is essential to the advanced saxophonist's repertoire. Dubois' most famous work makes for an exciting and enjoyable performance for players and audiences alike.”.

Composer's Note:
In writing these pieces I had in mind certain difficulties which worry most organists from time to time; and in order to combine, as it were, business with pleasure I thought it worthwhile to concentrate upon one aspect of organ technique in each piece, even at the risk of making them a little more difficult than others in this series.
In Procession the main difficulty lies in the pedals Arabesque, on the other hand could hardly have had a simpler pedal part: its object is to exercise the left hand in producing a smooth, running semi-quaver pattern Pageant with its cross-rhythms, is designed to produce well-disciplinedhands and feet that can, when required, work in conflicting rhythms.
I have kept the registration schemes as simple and straightforward as possible.
