Saxophone & Organ
Masterclass/Play-Along CD
By Daniel Rubinoff
THE SAXOPHONE AND
THE ORGAN TOGETHER
The saxophone’s incredible carrying power makes it an ideal wind instrument
partner for the organ. Organist Christopher Dawes explains, “When
performing with the saxophone I feel I can fully exploit the tonal
resources of the organ....” Further, the saxophone’s single resonating
reed and conical shape conform to the characteristics of the organ’s
reed family of pipes. This physical and acoustic relationship creates
wonderful blending possibilities.
THE COMPOSER
Denis Bédard has written more than sixty works, including chamber
music, orchestral and choral music and many works for organ. He has
received commissions from Radio-Canada, the CBC, the Quebec Symphony
Orchestra and various professional musicians in Canada, Great Britain
and the U.S.A. Many of his works have been performed internationally
(U.S.A., France, England, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Holland,
Austria, Sweden, Czech Republic, South Africa, Hong Kong, Japan),
particularly at international organ and saxophone conventions; many
have been published and recorded on CD. His Concerto for organ and
orchestra was premiered in July 2000 at the FQAO-RCCO joint Convention
in Quebec City. |
