Cecile Chaminade was born in Paris in 1857. Her music is accessible and entertaining, but also with a depth to it that remains of musical interest to this day. Probably her flute concerto is the piece best known, but she wrote a great many fine pieces. This piece, the Pastorale Op. 114 was written for piano and published in 1904. This arrangement is set for saxophone trio (alto, tenor, baritone) by John Gibson.

Cecile Chaminade was one of the pioneers of women composers in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Her Havanaise Op. 57 was written for piano and published in 1905. The name, Havanaise, has to do with the people and their music in Havana, Cuba. The piece uses a habanera / tango rhythm throughout and frequently is written with three parts, making it ideal for a saxophone trio arrangement (alto, tenor, baritone saxes).
