Salabert Scelsi G. - 3 Pezzi - Saxophone Soprano Ou Ténor

Summary of this score

Scelsi G. - 3 Pezzi - Soprano or Tenor Saxophone features three pieces written for a solo instrument. The title specifies performance on soprano or tenor saxophone, while the presentation also indicates that this work may be played on bass trumpet. This score is therefore aimed at instrumentalists wishing to explore solo repertoire in which their instrument alone occupies the entire musical space.

Playing without accompaniment calls for particular attention to the continuity of the musical discourse, breathing and the quality of each intervention. For both saxophonists and trumpet players, this setting places the focus on listening to their own sound. Attacks, breath support and the way phrases are shaped all become important areas of focus when developing a personal interpretation, always guided by the score.

The collection of three pieces offers several aspects to explore throughout the practice sessions. You can devote specific time to each one, then consider performing them consecutively to prepare a presentation of the complete set. This approach makes it possible to distinguish detailed practice from the development of an overall interpretation.

When choosing this score, focus above all on its solo instrumentation and the instrumental options specified. It may be suitable for individual practice or for preparing an unaccompanied performance. The choice between soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone and bass trumpet should be considered according to your playing and musical project.
