You will find a selection of essential standards by George Gershwin and Cole Porter, as well as a nod to bebop with Dizzy Gillespie, all complemented by some original pieces composed especially for this volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the major strengths of this collection is its \"smart duo\" design: the parts are written for \u003cstrong\u003etwo instruments tuned in the same key\u003c\/strong\u003e. This makes it easy to form a homogeneous duo (for example, \u003cstrong\u003eBb soprano saxophone with Bb tenor saxophone\u003c\/strong\u003e, or \u003cstrong\u003eEb alto saxophone with Eb baritone saxophone\u003c\/strong\u003e ) while maintaining a true musical logic: balance of roles, call and response, counter-melodies, and moments of dialogue between the two voices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe included CD, performed by \u003cstrong\u003eGreg Yasinitsky\u003c\/strong\u003e, also transforms practice sessions into a playing experience: each part is recorded on a separate channel. Simply mute one channel to keep the partner's voice and play your own, which greatly helps stabilize intonation, refine the blend, gain confidence, and internalize style codes (accents, swing, breathing, phrase endings). Whether in rehearsal or lessons, it is an ideal resource to help a saxophone duo progress while keeping the enjoyment of the repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded titles\u003c\/strong\u003e : Bye Bye Blackbird, A Foggy Day, The Man I Love, But Not for Me, What Is This Thing Called Love, Groovin' High, Fly by Night, Good to Go, Big Sky, Crazy Eights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMusical Genre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eJazz, Blues, Soul\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSheet music\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eGeorge Gershwin, Cole Porter, Dizzy Gillespie + original compositions\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ejazz duets, standards\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eGreg Yasinitsky\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eeasy to intermediate\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003esaxophone duo (two saxophones in the same key: Bb or Eb)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Alfred Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54357811364115,"sku":"55512","price":28.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/83730ad38ac0673bf93f0be1c663e4c346b2a7e8_0757904831.jpg?v=1792542471","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/alfred-publishing-for-saxes-only-10-jazz-duets-for-saxophone-cd-55512","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
