Jack Brymer premièred this work originally called 'Sopsonare' in 1973 at the American School at St. John's Wood playing on Michael Krein's Selmer soprano saxophone. This Sonata the first composition for saxophone by Colin Cowles was inspired by the acquisition of a soprano saxophone whilst teaching in Hemel Hempstead in the early 1970s. Although having played on a simple system soprano as a boy (an instrument borrowed from and taught him by his father) this re-introduction to the instrument was to kindle a life-long love of the complete saxophone family and the composition of an almost endless 'library' of works for it at all levels. It was also at a time whenthe composers had made recent acquaintance with the eminent saxophonist Peter Ripper and had been introduced to the saxophone quartet by the recently formed London Saxophone Quartet whose leader Paul Harvey was to play this Sonata and the Elegy for Soprano Saxophone and String Orchestra. He in fact premiered the latter work which Jack Brymer then played in public on a number of occasions. It was recorded by Peter Ripper with the composer at the piano at the BBC Maida Vale Studios. It is a totally non-esoteric work but like so much of the composer's music it is fun and approachable bearing repetition without becoming tedious. The composer has always favoured the Bb saxophones (soprano and tenor) which is reflected by his output. Of particular note are: • Concerto for Tenor Saxophone and Orchestra• In Memoriam for Tenor Saxophone and String Orchestra• Sonata for Tenor Saxophone and Piano • Three Bala Sketches for Tenor Saxophone and Piano. This Sonata for Soprano Saxophone and Piano and the Elegy for Soprano Saxophone and Strings are particular favourites of the composer.

Par KULENTY HANNA. I composed Aisthetikos Duo for soprano saxophone and piano immediately after Aisthetikos for soprano saxophone, piano and orchestra. I hit on the idea of preparing a work that could be performed more often. I was approached with a request to write such a version of Aisthetikos by its first performers: Magdalena and Bartlomiej Dus. A composition for two soloists and orchestra is no simple matter, and concert performances need a lot of preparation, while it is just easier for a duet. The soloists’ parts are slightly modified in the area of the orchestra part, but it is essentially the same work, written in the composition technique I call musique surréalistique, which I have been using for several years. It involves the overlapping of several interacting musical worlds, expanding over time. Hanna Kulenty translated by John Comber. / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Répertoire / Saxophone Soprano et Piano

Chant Grec is a piece by Manolis Kalomiris for Alto Saxophone and Piano. Initially composed for Voice and Piano and first published in 1929 this work was arranged by Theodore Kerkezos. It lasts for approximately four minutes and was influenced by music of the Greek country and would be really nice for a recital. Quite difficult and suitable for upper intermediate players or above this lovely piece is divided into two main sections: Andante con moto and Sherzando with the second part being much more energetic than the first. This piece can also be played by a Soprano Saxophone. ManolisKalomiris (1883-1962) is a Greek classical composer. He studied in Vienna and Russia before settling in Athens where he became Director of the Athens Conservatoire. He produced more than two hundred pieces.

À moins de sept minutes de longueur, ce travail techniquement difficile a fait un usage efficace de nature puissante et expressive de la sax soprano tout en équilibre avec succès matériel énergique et exubérant. Divisé en deux sections principales, la première permet les deux instrumentistes d'afficher les éléments de virtuosité et d'agilité tandis que la seconde explore les instruments plus de qualités lyriques.
