“Virtuoso piece in the style of a Hungarian Rhapsody” – thus reads Ravel's entry on “Tzigane” in the so-called “Autobiographical Sketch.” Composed in 1924, there are three versions of this work: with piano, with orchestra and with luthéal, a device for keyboard instruments to extend the timbre. “Tzigane” was inspired by the Hungarian-English violinist Jelly d'Aranyl, to whom Ravel had already promised a virtuoso piece in 1922 following Franz Liszt's “Hungarian Rhapsodies.” Work progressed slowly and d'Aranyl only received the music four days before the première – but she still gave a brilliant performance.

Ravel’s TZIGANE is among the only concerto-like violin solos from the coloristically rich Impressionist repertoire. This exuberant showpiece is thoroughly infused with melodies and accompaniments in the style of Hungarian folk music, and Ravel composed the work with accompaniments for piano and for orchestra. Jeffrey Heisler’s brilliant transcription for soprano sax captures all the sparkle of Ravel’s violin writing and is fully compatible with both authentic versions, to allow optimum performance for saxophonists with either accompaniment. Heisler takes advantage of slap tongue and altissimo to create a dazzling showpiece, expanding the repertoire for the advanced saxophonist.
