Description

Jindrich Feld's Sonata for Alto Saxophone and Piano is frequently performed by virtuoso saxophonists. Composed in 1989-90, the Sonata is elaborate and quirky, and successfully exploits many extended techniques on the instrument. Each movement of the Sonata presents different challenges, from fast, staccato, semiquaver flourishes to the lyrical slurred passages.

Born in Prague, Feld (1925-2007) studied Violin and Viola with his parents before studying at the Conservatory and Academy of Music of his native city. His compositions, predominantly instrumental, soon became popular, being performed all over the world. As reflected in his Sonata for Alto Saxophone and Piano, Feld's style is deeply rooted in the Czech musical tradition, but he also integrated the main styles of 20th century Western music.
