The World Saxophone Orchestra originated in 1987 from an ensemble class at the Sweelinck Conservatorium Amsterdam. The ensemble lessons proved fruitful and a new orchestra, consisting of about twelve young saxophonists from the Netherlands and Belgium, was founded. Since its foundation, the orchestra has been conducted by Ed Bogaard. This CD contains four works that were originally written for the
… saxophone orchestra. You can listen to: "L'arbre ballet" by Henri Sauguet, "Prelude for 12 saxophones" by Otto Ketting, "Partita" by Reinhold Selen and "Octet" by Walter S. Hartley.more
