Duet Saxophone/Orgue | |||
At last, here is a unique duo. We have the habit of associating the organ to the brilliant sounds of the trumpet. We propose to our auditors a different approach.. We shall combine the diversified timbres created by the organ with the soft, warm and sensual sounds of the saxophone (from the soprano to the bass). The timbres of the saxophone family combine its voices with the organ to create unforgettable musical moments. The sounds of the saxophone blends so perfectly with the organ that at times we have difficulties to distinguish between the two instruments. Rather rare, this particular formation has nevertheless inspired many composers of the 20th century. | |||
