Product Description
One of the most beloved Neapolitan songs of all time, composed by Ernesto de Curtis in 1894, and recorded by many artists, including Enrico Caruso, Luciano Pavarotti, Dean Martin, Bing Crosby and Sergio Franchi. This intermediate-level arrangement for alto sax and piano displays the beauty and passion of the original vocal solo, and will be a welcome addition to your recital/concert repertoire. NOTE: There are two possible endings - the 'Long Ending', with cadenza (which requires a more advanced player as it soars well into the altissimo range; and the 'Short Ending', which is much simpler and easier to play.
