These works were published by Millereau with the instrumentation “pour hautbois ou saxophone�. The saxophone part was obviously the soprano instrument in C of the “orchestral� family of C-F instruments,which are no longer in use except for the C-Melody Tenor instrument. These versions are published for the more common series of instruments in Bb and Eb. The saxophone part is the same as for the instruments in C, but the piano part is transposed to keep the ranges the same.
