Summary of This Collection

This collection offers a set of pieces for saxophone and piano, designed to enrich saxophonists' repertoire while developing listening skills and a sense of dialogue with the accompanist. The writing highlights the melodic line, phrasing, and breathing, while giving the piano a role of musical and structural accompaniment. The inclusion of a CD allows for practice at home under conditions close to rehearsal, reinforcing pulse, entrances, and intonation.

The selection alternates contrasting atmospheres and varied colors, suitable for preparing performances (auditions, exams, end-of-year concerts) as well as regular lesson practice. Included are pieces such as: Côté jardin, I'll call you, C'rock monsieur, brumes d'automne, Si seulement, Tout simplement, Carmy, COntigo, Restons calmes, Mystère celte, ... la caravane passe, Nana Cruz, Les Pieds dans l'eau, Boîte à malices, Sous le poirier d'Halstatt, Florzinha. Each piece can be approached as a mini musical project to assert expression, rhythmic precision, and saxophone-piano balance.
