Yes, it certainly should be Seán; should be a safe bet with those forces.

Something of a gamble here, but not too much with those composers that are listed I suppose. I do not think that I have any saxophone music in my classical music collection.

That looks interesting. I am always keen to listen to classical musicians play the saxophone and more often than not their tone is too light and I find that they are indistinguishable from one another. Jazz musicians on the other hand........

Do please let me know what you make of that recording Fergus. If you recall it was first choice in the BAL programme a few months ago.

I listened to this today on Spotify and enjoyed it very much. I found some of the faster tempi a little too fast at times, but it's a minor quibble.

It is on my play list for later today Simon.

That is exactly the point of this particular purchase Seán; this music never quite measures up for me. I am searching for a performance that might bring it to life for me.
