{"product_id":"fantaisie-impromptu-for-alto-sax-and-piano","title":"Alphonse Leduc — Fantaisie Impromptu — for Alto Sax and Piano","description":"\u003cp\u003eAndré Jolivet (1905-1974) established his love for composition from a young age. This remained throughout his life, and he held the post of Professor of Composition from 1966-1970 at the Paris Conservatoire. \u003ci\u003eImpromptu Fantasy\u003c\/i\u003e for alto saxophone and piano was published in 1953, and remains highly regarded. Jolivet, himself a cellist, wished to explore composition for all instruments, and therefore has a considerable number of works in all fields. The composer's style is also known for its spirituality, and the desire to associate the everyday with the magical, and the human with the universal. Jolivet draws on acoustics and atonality, as heard in his \u003ci\u003eImpromptu Fantasy.\u003c\/i\u003e The piece requires advanced skills due to its use of complex rhythms and harmonics. For all advanced saxophonists, Jolivet provides an exciting, alternative piece for the instrument's repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat \/ Medium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Softcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alto Sax and Piano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Leduc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.0 × 9.0 × 0.1 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlphonse Leduc — French publisher since 1841, home of the Paris Conservatoire repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAuthorized dealer.
