{"product_id":"afw-48183189","title":"Improvisation I","description":"Japanese born Ryo Noda (b. 1948) has been hailed for his forward-looking, avant-garde compositions and innovative playing techniques. \u003ci\u003eImprovisation 1\u003c\/i\u003e is no exception. Noda's compositional achievements were significantly recognised in 1973 when he was awarded the SACEM Composition Prize. \u003ci\u003eImprovisation 1\u003c\/i\u003e was published a year later, at the height of his career. Exploiting extended techniques on the saxophone to their full potential, Noda provides a score with a written glossary. However, a significant amount of interpretation with regards to tempo, pauses and pitch bends is left to the performer. \u003ci\u003eImprovisation 1\u003c\/i\u003e is based on Shakuhachi playing, a Japanese flute made of bamboo, tuned to the minor pentatonic scale. For all saxophonists, Noda's \u003ci\u003eImprovisation 1\u003c\/i\u003e is an excellent, varied addition to advanced repertoires.","brand":"Alphonse Leduc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50547471351887,"sku":"AFW-48183189","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/1271\/8671\/files\/AFW-48183189.jpg?v=1790681090","url":"https:\/\/amadeussheetmusic.com\/products\/afw-48183189","provider":"Amadeus Sheet Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
