Mr John Wesley-Barker
Jul 18, 2021
(Verified customer)
This version of Escapades by John Williams for alto saxophone and piano works very well and goes down well in a recital. The music is derived from the score for the Steven Spielberg film Catch Me If You Can which has a catchy bitonal and atonal jazz character suiting the period of the plot. The original score featured Dan Higgins playing alto saxophone with prominent lines for vibraphone, marimba and jazz upright bass. I adapted the piano part for playing on an electronic keyboard and used those sounds to recall the full character of the piece. Quite tricky to play, possibly Grade 7 or 8 standard but it fits under the fingers well. A worthy addition to the repertoire for alto saxophone and piano and recommended.
