Pierre Lantier was 'affiliated' to the Paris Conservatoire and won the prestigious Prix de Rome for composition in 1937. He was also noted as a pianist and conductor, at least to the extent that he conducted the first performance of his wife Paule Maurice's 'Tableau de Provence' for saxophone and orchestra in 1958. His compositions include chamber works for saxophone quartet and bass trombone and sonatas for trumpet and saxophone.
One of Lantier's best known works is his 'Sicilienne' for alto saxophone and piano which, since its publication in 1944, has become a classic of the alto saxophone repertoire. It is written in a single movement but in strongly contrasting moods - a declamatory almost aggressive middle section framed by two passages of lilting 6/8 which give the piece its name. "The stylistic nuances and variety, combined with dynamic contrasts and pleasing melodies, make this a work well worth performing." (Steven Mauk)
