Brahms (1833-1897)

Description:

Brahms' sonatas on saxophone. A brilliant student of Durangle! The French virtuoso Nicolas Arsenijevic plays three of Brahms' masterpieces on the saxophone instead of the original clarinet and cello. While respecting the charm of the original Brahms sonatas, the saxophonist's unique functionality and lustrous, sparkling tone are fully utilized in this performance. Nicolas Arsenijevich studied at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris under French saxophone master Claude Delangre, and is an accomplished Selmer artist who has won prizes at numerous international competitions, including the Adolphe Sax International Competition in 2014.
