Arno Bornkamp, a maestro of the saxophone deeply rooted in the 20th-century French tradition, has been celebrated by audiences for over four decades for his energetic, impassioned interpretations. Now, he presents an album of works by the French composer Henri Sauguet under the GENUIN label. Sauguet's compositions embody a blend of styles from renowned composers like Erik Satie, Darius Milhaud, and Claude Debussy, yet are also marked by a playful spirit that defies any rigid categorization. Unique, vibrant, and above all, poetic - this is the essence of Sauguet's music, delivered with profound sensitivity by Bornkamp and his friends.
