Program Notes
Concertino Da Camera, written in 1935 by Jacques Ibert (1890-1962) is a small concerto for alto saxophone and eleven instruments: flute, bassoon, oboe, horn, trumpet and strings. This concertino in two movements, Allegro con moto and Larghetto Animato Molto is dedicated to the saxophonist Sigurd Rascher and stands out for its large use of the alto saxophone. It can be technically challenging and has a strong lyrical part.
