Jindrich Feld, Sonata for Alto Saxophone and Piano (1989-90) 

 Photocopies of manuscript alto saxophone part and piano part 

 Donated by Eugene Rousseau 

 [Photo 1] This complex work for saxophone is well known for its employment of extended techniques. We received this working copy from saxophonist Eugene Rousseau, for whom the work was composed. 

 [Photos 2-3] We wonder what note most players sound for the "arbitrary high note" required in the Scherzo, but at least it's marked fortissimo and not pianissimo. 

 [Photo 4] This copy contains many performance markings, including fingerings for certain passages as can be seen on the Post-it note.
