Sax O'Dance
Scottish, Polka, Andro, Mazurka, Waltz, Ridée, Bourrée, Jallesoise ... so many dances, so many styles, rhythms, and melodies that characterize them. Some of these dances may be familiar to us, but several of them remain known only to lovers of traditional music and folk dances. Through ten original pieces composed for alto saxophone and piano, Laurent Papin suggests we tackle with the spirit of each of these dances in very contrasting and resolutely modern musical styles.
