About This Item
The saxophone, especially the alto saxophone, is not necessarily a very busy instrument in the symphony orchestra. However, in addition to it's formative tracks in jazz, in quite a few cases it has also left sound traces in the field of so-called Inchclassical musicInch that are worth listening to. These traces are followed by the album InchGravity GrooveInch by the Finnish saxophonist Joonatan Rautiola. In addition to an interesting arrangement detour to Mozart's InchKegelstatt TrioInch, it also brings to life impressionistic or neo-classical gems such as Claude Debussy's Rhapsody for Alto Saxophone and Paule Maurice's Tableaux de Provence. With Charles Wuorinen's Divertimento and the title sonata by Tuomas Turriago, InchGravity GrooveInch, Rautiola enters contemporary sound spheres with virtuosity and tonal refinement.
