As with his other wind compositions, \u003cem\u003eCorsican Song\u003c\/em\u003e was well-received by audiences. Tomasi was born in Marseille, but his father and mother were originally from La Casinca in Corsica. Despite being pressured into musical studies by his parents, Tomasi dreamed of becoming a sailor, and during the summer, he stayed with his grandmother in Corsica where he learnt traditional Corsican songs. However, in 1921, he began his studies at the Paris Conservatoire and went on to become a high profile composer and conductor. Tomasi did not forget his Corsican routes, often incorporating themes of the songs he had learnt during the summers with his grandmother in to his compositions, as is the case with \u003cem\u003eCorsican Song\u003c\/em\u003e. This Tomasi work is unusual in composition through its exploitation of tonality, rhythm and structure amongst other aspects. However, this Tomasi piece, suitable for advanced saxophonists, provides an exciting, alternative addition to the repertoire.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alphonse Leduc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41583768535119,"sku":"AL18122","price":20.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/7752cd8c5eb7922019bf4719e8399e09.jpg?v=1766618293","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/products\/tomasi-chant-corse-leduc","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
