Some months ago I was talking with a saxophonist when he said: "It's a good thing for pianists - as you are - to have a large soloistic repertoire with orchestra; unfortunately saxophonists don't have. Why don't you orchestrate some pieces of our repertoire for sax and piano?" I got the idea and thought about it for a while; then, after a few weeks, I decided to orchestrate Paul Creston's Sonata op. 19 transforming it into a concerto for saxophone and orchestra. Having played this piece many times, I knew it very well and in my opinion it suited excellently to an orchestral version. In my work I've been faithful to what the author has written: I've not changed harmony, neither rhythm; I've only created a new "look" for this masterpiece of Paul Creston.

Pescara, December 2008 - Marco Ciccone



...I say thank you for the excellent work done...accept my sincere congratulations...

Gianfranco Brundo, Italy - December 23, 2008


...congratulations for the idea and the transcription of Creston's Sonata for orchestra...

Massimo Mazzoni, Italy - January 8, 2009


...thank you very much...that is a great add to our repertoire and I will tell you as soon as I play it!

Claude Delangle, France - January 10 - 2009


...you have done a very fine job of transcribing it for orchestra...you are to be congratulated on your fine musical arranging skills...I knew Paul very well... I am sure that he would approve...your arrangement does the work proud...

Frederick Hemke, USA - February 17, 2009


..congratulations for your work...

Gianfranco Gioia, Italy - March 13, 2009


...it is great to have an orchestra version of Creston's wonderful Sonata! Many thanks for doing this!...

Susan Fancher, USA - July 13, 2009


...we enjoyed playing your arrangement and I can tell you that it works and my saxophone colleague at Western Illinois University enjoyed the colors the orchestration brought to the sonata...

Dr. Bruce C. Briney, orchestra conductor, USA - March 3, 2010


...I had so much fun performing it! I thought the orchestration was fantastic...none of the parts were ever too loud and the orchestra never covered me up...parts sounded very good together...the orchestration was amazing!...Thank you so much!!!

John Reinhardt, USA - March 5, 2010


...let me extend my thanks to you for this wonderful orchestration that makes Creston's Sonata able to be performed with this medium. Your work really opens up a whole new venue of performance opportunities for a crucial piece of saxophone repertoire...it really is well done...Congratulations!... ...the percussion is very tastefully done though; I especially enjoy the woodblocks... ...interestingly enough, there were some openly admitted, pre-performance skeptical who were very impressed post-performance, and really thought that the orchestration "worked."... ...all in all I really do like the orchestration... ...once again, thank you very much for your work...

John Seaton, USA - March 26, 2010


I heard Your version of Creston's Sonata. And it's great. I like it.
