S147: Prelude, Cadence et Finale for Alto Saxophone and Piano by Alfred Desenclos. Leduc, 1956, SS, 15 + 6 pages. Dedicated to Marcel Mule and a contest piece at the National Conservatory. A wonderful composition from Desenclos (1912-1971) who wrote very little music because he thought his music wasn't good enough. As Mule wrote, this piece proves the contrary. It opens with the Prelude which is dark and jazz influenced. The Cadence is built primarily on rapid arpeggios and is followed by a transitional piano section leading into the Finale which begins a rapidly but alternates between sections similar to the beginning before accelerating again to the  conclusion. The piano part is very important and requires a skilled player. Advanced level.
