Le Souffle des légendes, ensemble Saxo Voce with Charles Berling (reciter), Frank Bradley (piano), Jean-Yves Fourmeau (alto saxophone), Karol Beffa (piano), under the direction of Johan Farjot, works by Karol Beffa, Francis Poulenc, André Caplet, Henri Tomasi.

The Saxo Voce ensemble offers us a French musical journey aboard its new album. On the program, Francis Poulenc’s sextet, André Caplet’s Legend, Henri Tomas’ Concerto, and a Musical Tale by Mathieu Laine set to music by Karol Beffa.

In 2012, Thibaut Canaval founded an ensemble bringing together the entire saxophone family… The saxophone is recognized and appreciated by the public, but has not managed to establish itself like the piano or the violin, it remains a young and unclassifiable instrument .

This singularity leads the Saxo Voce ensemble to produce transcriptions. He succeeded in highlighting the qualities of the saxophone, thus adapting more than thirty works by Bach, Mozart, Debussy, Ravel, Rachmaninov, Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Poulenc, Gershwin, Kodaly, Bernstein…

The Saxo Voce ensemble also wants to defend today’s music by soliciting young and old composers. The Saxo Voce ensemble has performed on France Télévisions and France Musique as well as on stages such as the Salle Cortot, the Seine Musicale, the Bal Blomet, Châteauvallon-Liberté, the National Theater of Zagreb…
