Alfred Music Vahid Matejkos Shanty Play-Alongs für Saxophon (inkl. Bb- und Eb-Stimmen)

Shanties are once again enjoying great popularity. Especially the reissue of "The Wellerman" by Nathan Evans has contributed to this. The sea shanties, which were used for work purposes as well as entertainment, radiate a special energy, conveying to listeners the deprived and yearning times at sea and providing a good insight into the work and life of seafarers.

With Shanty Play-Alongs Vahid Matejkos, musician and producer, presents a music book with instrumental backing tracks for saxophone, including Bb and Eb voices. The saxophone has a very special tone that can transport emotions in an optimal way. So it also gives the shanty a special character and skillfully conveys the messages of the songs. At the same time, the pieces arranged here have the most diverse echoes, which make the edition a versatile work. Through elements of rock, Latin, funk, Big Band to orchestral and Caribbean influences, each song has its own unique charm. The titles are each available as a full version as well as a half-playback, all recorded by professional musicians.
