Rhapsody is not a programmatic work, but one that spontaneously turns into a natural musical journey. André Waignein showcases and explores both the technical prowess and the expressive nature of the saxophone. The three movements take the soloist from a virtuosic arabesque to a lyrical and expressive theme before jumping back into a lively tarantella. Rhapsody for Alto Saxophone concludes with one final majestic, breathtaking flourish
Program Note from publisher
Beautifully played! Bravo!
It’s nearly impossible for me to be impressed by any alto piece. I’m beyond impressed with everything you delivered. Stunning, articulate. I’m a chamber bari main by choice. You make me want to pick my alto back up and actually spend time on it
Thank you! This means so much to me!
You’ve come a long way from that kid I knew at CMU. Bravo, Matt

Thank you for sharing this wonderful performance.
Hi Matthew! Is it possible to obtain the sheet music for both the piano and saxophone? I really want to learn to play this and play it in a concert with my piano teacher!🙂 LOOOVED the performance btw💛
Thank you! Sheet music is available here:

Thanks sooo much! I’ll def try it out!✨🎷
Wow, how did you get your sound so good?
Overtones! “Top Tones” by Sigurd Rascher, and “Voicing” by Donald Sinta are good books to get started.
What saxophone and mouthpiece did you play on?
Very impressive! How long did it take you to practice this piece prior to this performance?
Thank you! I practiced this for about 6
months before performing it.
do you actually think the bigger, heavier screw makes a difference to sound ? Cheers
Not a significant difference to sound. The large screw makes it easier to tighten and loosen the neck quickly.
@@matthewtracy9509 thanks - one of the best performances of this piece i've heard :)
your altissimo is so controlled
