Rachmaninoff's familiar Vocalise op. 34, no. 1 is presented in this arrangement in its original key, retaining the ambiance of the composer’s piano part while placing the Bb soprano (or tenor) saxophone in the key of Eb minor. This is a literal, unabridged rendition of this lovely song without words (no altissimo register). approx. 6-1/2 min.
