Clarinet Classics Various CD
Rudy Wiedoeft - 'Kreisler of the Saxophone'
Famous Solos from the 20s
Programme includes: Many compositions and arrangement by Rudy Wiedoeft; Nevin Narcissus; Rosebrook Saxophone Fantasie; Gabriel-Marie Serenade Badine; Beethoven Minuet in G.
Following the overwhelming public response to the publication of Marcel Mule - 'Le Patron of the Saxophone', Clarinet Classics now presents a programme from an even earlier period, and from the other side of the Atlantic.
In his short life, Rudy Wiedoeft recorded over 300 record sides for all the major labels - many being his own compositions - and imparted his own unique style to everything he did, influencing generations of saxophonists after him.
Rudy Wiedoefts' legacy to the musical world was not just a collection of compelling compositions and recordings, but the distinction of having introduced the saxophone as a serious voice in a truly innovative way and gaining for it a tremendous following.
Ethelbert Nevins' delicious Narcissus.
Song of The Volga Boatmen arranged by Wiedoeft.
Described by the famous pianist Oscar Levant as "…..the world's greatest saxophonist…."
" …. how wonderful it is now to have all these enhanced recordings together on CD!"
PAUL HARVEY, CLARINET AND SAXOPHONE
