Product description
This collection of five original pieces has been composed to give saxophonists of moderate ability the experience of playing duets in the jazz idiom. Both parts are of equal importance and difficulty but written in 'comfortable' keys. They can either be played by two saxophones in the same key (i.e. two altos, two tenors, alto and baritone, tenor and soprano, etc.) or by using the transposed second part, alto and tenor. These pieces provide interesting material for both practice and performance.
James Rae (* 1957) is an English saxophonist, arranger, educator and composer. He is one of the most published European composers of educational and instructional compositions for wind instruments.
