Description

Five of the most delicate melodies of classical music, brought together in one collection as easy sheet music for alto saxophone: Frédéric Chopin’s Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2, Robert Schumann’s Reverie, Felix Mendelssohn’s Nocturne from A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Camille Saint-Saëns’ The Swan, and Erik Satie’s Gymnopédie No. 1. All pieces have been carefully simplified and transposed into saxophone-friendly keys. The melodies retain all their poetry, while being much easier to play. Chord symbols allow you to play with accompaniment. The warm, singing sound of the alto saxophone feels made for these dreamlike works, creating an intimate, expressive atmosphere. Ideal for beginner saxophonists with around 1 to 2 years of lessons, as well as returning players. Whether for relaxed practice sessions, performances, meditative moments, or simply for pure enjoyment, this edition invites you to discover the most beautiful side of the alto saxophone.
