About
The acclaimed saxophone player Claude Delangle has long been intrigued by Japan as demonstrated already ten years ago with the disc ‘The Japanese Saxophone’ (BISCD890). Unlike the previous, all-Japanese disc, the present programme includes works by two French composers, Bertrand Dubedout and Hacène Larbi, who have also become fascinated by the enigma of Japan. Apart from Ryo Noda’s Improvisation I for solo saxophone, the programme consists of various combinations of voice, saxophone and percussion.
