List
of Recommended Repertoire for Bb
soprano saxophone
(with piano unless specified)
Several of the best solo works for soprano sax are for solo soprano
with orchestra or band, and these have piano reductions available.
Be sure to have a look at my concerto list for more pieces for soprano.
Additional pieces can be found in the unaccompanied and sax/tape/electronics
lists.
