僕のカブリオレ：斎藤尚久 [サクソフォンクワイヤー]

僕のカブリオレ

元々は僕自身が主催するバンドでホール公演が決まった際にメイン曲として演奏するために書いた曲ですが、その後ご要望がありサクソフォーンオーケストラに編曲をし、他の団体様にも演奏をして頂く機会がありました。そして、今回デモ音源として使用させて頂く事になったのは、上野学園大学サクソフォーン科の皆さんの演奏です。合宿中にコロナの影響で演奏会の中止が決まった中、先生を始め学生の皆さんがこの曲を録音し、さらに映像までを完成させてくれました。

本来なら、下を向いてしまいそうな状況の中、前向きにそして懸命に取り組んでいる姿はこの映像を通してとても心を打たれ、さらに勇気をもらえます。この映像を見た方の中には僕と同じように感じた方は多いのではないでしょうか?
直接映像制作に関わったわけではありませんが、僕の曲を選んで頂いたという事でとても素敵なプレゼントを頂いた気持ちになりました。上野学園大学サクソフォーン科の先生方、生徒の皆さんにこの場をお借りして御礼を申し上げます。
また、曲への反響も頂き楽譜の問合せが続いた事からこの度発売させて頂く事になりました。

発売にあたり少し修正があります。
打楽器はドラム譜を掲載していますが、映像のようにカホンで代用しても良いと思います。曲の性格上、オプションのピアノ、エレキベースを入れるとより迫力あるサウンドが楽しめます。
ソプラニーノサックスとバスサックスもオプション扱いになります。いくつかのパートにアドリブソロが出てきますが、今回もサンプルを用意しましたので参考にしてみて下さい。
特に後半のソロの掛け合いは盛り上がると思いますのでぜひ!!

LET’S START DRIVING WITH MY CABRIOLET

Cabriolet is a word that is used in French and German to mean a "convertible."On a summer day, I get into my beloved cabriolet, turn on the ignition, and wake up the engine! While staring at the tachometer, I steadily shift up from first gear and drive off with a bang along the coastline maintaining a speed with just a little feeling of tension! This is a driving song with a sense of speed.

I originally wrote this song to be played as the main piece when my band decided to perform at a concert hall, but later, upon request, I arranged it for a saxophone orchestra and had the opportunity to have other orchestras perform it as well. I used the performance by the saxophone department at Ueno Gakuen University as a demo sound source. While the concert had to be cancelled due to the effects of the corona virus during the training camp, the department's students, with their teachers, recorded this piece of music and even completed a video.

This video is very inspiring and gives me courage to see them working so hard and positively in a situation that would normally make me look down. I'm sure there are many people who have seen this video who feel the same way I do. Although I was not directly involved in the production of the video, I felt like I was given a wonderful gift by the fact that they chose my song. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the teachers and students of the saxophone department at Ueno Gakuen University.Also, I have had a great response to this piece of music, and after many inquiries about the sheet music I have decided to release it for sale.

There are a few changes in the release.For the percussion, I have included the drum score, but you can use a cajon instead, as shown in the video. Based upon the nature of this piece of music, you can include an optional piano and electric bass for a sound with more impact.The sopranino sax and the bass sax are also be optional. In several parts, adlibbed solos will appear. I prepared a sample this time, too, so please use it as a reference.In particular, I think that the duet between the solos in the second half gets lively, so please definitely listen to it!!
