Sherwood Sonata for Soprano Saxophone and Piano
From the Publisher
Wayne Shorter was a legendary American jazz saxophonist, composer and bandleader. He joined Miles Davis’s Second Great Quintet in 1964. Davis said, “Wayne is a real composer. He writes scores, writes the parts for everybody, just as he wants them to sound. ...”. In 1971 Shroter formed the fusion group Weather Report. After leaving Weather Report, he continued to record and lead groups in jazz fusion styles, including touring in 1988 with guitarist Carlos Santana. Many Shorter compositions have become jazz standards, and his music has earned worldwide recognition, critical praise, and commendation. Shorter won 12 Grammy Awards. Sherwood Concerto for soprano saxophone (or clarinet) and orchestra was premiered by Nicolas Prost and Sébastien Paindestre in New York City, N.Y. February, 22 2023 and in Paris May, 28 202. The reduction for soprano saxophone and piano was arranged by composer and pianist Olivier Calmel.
