Yet Roger Boutry (b. 1932) proves with his Divertimento for Alto Saxophonethat the combination of style and instrument make for a thrilling performance. French composer Boutry won many prizes during his time at the Paris Conservatoire as well as for his professional work. He has over 100 published works in which hesuccessfully unites diverse modern and traditional trends. He was named Personality of the Year in 1989 for all of his artistic activities. Divertimento is cast in three movements beginning in a highly rhythmic and syncopated way before moving on toa moody and balladlike second movement that ends with a cadenza. This leads into the third movement a light presto finale. Boutry s Divertimento for Alto Saxophone and Piano accompaniment is an essential and varied addition to the advancedsaxophonists repertoire.

Ode à la Musique (1961) for Baritone 4-part mixed chorus trumpet two horns three trombones piano and double bass Frank Martin (1890-1974) Frank Martin was born in Geneva Switzerland on 15 September 1890. He was the tenth and youngest child of a clergyman's family. He played and improvised on the piano even before he went to school. By the age of nine he had composed charming children's songs that were perfectly balanced without ever having been taught musical forms or harmony. A performance of Bach's St. Matthew Passion heard at the age of twelve left a lasting impression on the composer for whom J.S. Bachremained the true master. He attended classical languages high school and to please his parents went on to study mathematics and physics at the University of Geneva for two years. Simultaneously he started studying piano and composition with Joseph Lauber who initiated him in the craft especially in instrumentation. Between 1918 and 1926 Frank Martin lived in Zurich Rome and Paris working on his own searching for a personal musical language.

He was artistic director of the Technicum Moderne de Musique from 1933 to 1940 and president of the Swiss Association of Musicians between 1942 and 1946. In 1932 he became interested in the 12-tone technique of Arnold Schonberg. He incorporated certain elements into his own musical language creating a synthesis of the chromatic and twelve-tone techniques without however abandoning the sense of tone - that is the hierarchical relations between notes. Le Vin Herbé (1941) was the first important work in which he completely mastered this very personal idiom. Together with the Petite Symphonie Concertante (1944-45) it established his international reputation. Martin's many musical activities in Switzerland interfered with the peace and
