Originally I wrote these 3 easy recitals 2016 and 2017 for my children in wintertime. The melodies were composed during our pre-Christmas home music sessions and year after year my children learned new notes on their instruments. As a result, I expanded the range and wrote the pieces in several degrees of difficulty, which can give pleasure to both young and old alike.
Performance note
The 3 movements may also be played independently. If all 3 movements are performed at one concert, the 1st set is played by player A and the 3rd set is played by player B. The original order should be respected.
Editions and publications
For the 1st and 3rd movements there are additionally lighter Ossia parts with a smaller or lower range available. If no piano is available, demos and playalongs are provided for practice purposes, at home or for internal auditions. In public concerts the pieces should only be performed with live piano accompaniment.
(Theodor Burkali 2019)
In 2023 the composer made a new instrumentation for saxophones.
The sheet music is available printed or digitally (licensed PDFs). The audio files are available free online. *
