A la française - Music for saxophone and piano
Catalog Number: BIS1130
BBC Music Magazine 5 stars; International Record Review: outstanding.
This album presents iconic 20th-century French music for alto saxophone and piano, featuring works by Desenclos, Maurice, Sancan, Delvincourt, Decroux, and Koechlin. Performed by Claude and Odile Delangle, it explores the expressive depth, technical brilliance, and cultural charm of the French saxophone tradition.
This rich and diverse collection celebrates the French school of classical saxophone, led by virtuoso Claude Delangle and pianist Odile Delangle. Spanning from lyrical melodies to humorous pastiches and pedagogical études, the program includes evocative works by Fernande Decruck, Claude Delvincourt, Paule Maurice, Alfred Desenclos, Pierre Sancan, and Charles Koechlin. These pieces reflect the refined aesthetic pioneered by Marcel Mule—combining clarity, color, and emotional nuance—and offer a vibrant rediscovery of the saxophone’s expressive voice in 20th-century French music.
