Dedicated to the first worldwide hit in 5/4 - Take Five, Gimme Five! uses a rhythm that is identical to the classic jazz hit. It also reflects the semi-modal approached used by saxophonist Paul Desmond when he performed one of the few jazz melodies that is instantly recognisable. This swinging piece will bring back memories of the Dave Brubeck Quartet and will be extremely popular with both players and audiences. Dit is een ode aan de eerste wereldwijde hit in de 5/4 maatsoort - Take Five van saxofonist Paul Desmond. Het basisritme is identiek aan dat van Take Five, namelijk een groepje van drie gevolgd door een groepje van tweekwartnoten. Behalve het ritme weerspiegelt Gimme Five de semi-modale benadering van Desmonds klassieker. In de openingspassage komen frasen van steeds twee maten naar voren, die op elkaar worden gestapeld, waardoor hetmodale effect wordt gecreeerd. Een geslaagde compositie, die niet onderdoet voor Desmonds klassieker!Gimme Five! ist dem ersten weltweiten Hit im 5/4-Takt gewidmet - Take Five vom Saxophonisten Paul Desmond. Ausser der rhythmischen Ahnlichkeit, spiegelt sich in Gimme Five! auch der semi-modale Ansatz von Desmonds Klassiker wider. In den Eroffnungstakten erzeugen zweitaktige ubereinander gelagerte Ostinato-Phrasen den modalen Effekt. Eine gelungene Komposition, die sich hinter Desmonds Klassiker nicht zu verstecken braucht! Gimme Five! e un omaggio musicale al primo grande successo in 5/4, Take Five del sassofonista Paul Desmond. La pulsazione fondamentale e identica a quella del jazz classico. Oltre all'assomiglianza ritmica, i due brani condividono l'approccio semi-modale utilizzato da Paul Desmond.

Unparalleled in scope, this groundbreaking series for E_Alto and B_Tenor offers a single collection of Repertoire and supporting materials written or arranged specifically for saxophone. With Repertoire spanning from the Baroque to contemporary eras, Recordings, Etudes, Technique, and Orchestral Excerpts, this comprehensive series serves as a balanced and organized pedagogical resource from the beginner to advanced levels of study. Nine progressive volumes of Repertoire expose students to original works and arrangements of diverse styles from W.A. Mozart to Violet Archer, with selected works by notable jazz artist Paul Desmon (Take Five), and living composer Phil Woods. Each level provides opportunities to explore Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and contemporary works, with original, unaccompanied selections from Levels 5 through 8 that use extended techniques such as multiphonics, key clicks, and bisbigliando. Earlier works pre-dating the origin of the saxophone have been carefully arranged with consideration of the unique quality of the instrument. Exposure to these works help to develop musicianship and an understanding of tonality, creating well-rounded and versatile performers. Selections written for both E_Alto and B_Tenor include piano accompaniments that function with both instruments.Eb Saxophone:Mainly Transcriptions:Sonata, op. 2, no. 1 - Benedetto Marcello, arr.
