{"product_id":"ymds-0022","title":"Intermezzo from the opera \"Cavalleria Rusticana\" [Alto Saxophone \u0026 Piano]","description":"\u003cp\u003ePietro Mascagni's opera \"Cavalleria Rusticana,\" which premiered in 1890, is renowned as a masterpiece of Verismo opera. This one-act opera, set in late 19th-century Sicily, Italy, depicts the intense loves, hates, and tragedies of ordinary people.\u003cbr\u003eAmong its various parts, the \"Intermezzo\" is an instrumental piece placed in the middle of the story, serving to temporarily quiet the tension-filled dramatic flow. Its gentle melody, primarily featuring string instruments, exudes a piety that can even be described as religious, and a profound lyricism, making it a particularly beloved section of the entire work.\u003cbr\u003eThis arrangement reworks this beautiful Intermezzo for alto saxophone and piano. While preserving the rich emotional depth of the original piece, the soft and warm tone of the saxophone further enhances the lyrical quality of the melody. When performing, it is important to emphasize natural phrasing and smooth legato, expressing the internal depth of the music. The piano, furthermore, plays a crucial role not merely as an accompaniment, but in supporting the overall emotion through its harmonic transitions and expansive resonance.\u003cbr\u003eWe hope that this arrangement will help convey the serene and sublime beauty of the original work, even in this new instrumentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003eTitle (Japanese)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e歌劇「カヴァレリア・ルスティカーナ」より「間奏曲」\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTitle (English)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlto Saxophone \u0026amp; Piano\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Code\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYMDS-0022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eComposer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePietro Mascagni\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eArranger\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYuto Yamada\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEngraver\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYuto Yamada\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePerformance Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2:40\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eArrangement Year\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePerformance Audio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/n-ICtqVcJNY\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eYouTube (Performed by Ryosuke Sakai, Momoko Hirao)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDigital (PDF) Score\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eComing Soon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstrumentation List\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eInstrument\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"25%\"\u003eNumber of Parts\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlto Saxophone in E-flat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePiano\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e1 (Full Score)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrinted scores may not be reproduced (e.g., for extra copies) without permission from the copyright holder.
