Édith Piaf, also known as “The Little Sparrow,†rose to international stardom in the late 1930s as a symbol of French passion and tenacity. Of Piaf’s many ballads, La Vie en Rose, which she wrote, is remembered as her signature song. Other favorites among the singer's repertoire include Milord, Padam Padam, Mon Dieu, the charming Mon Manège à Moi and the anthemic Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien. Having a life beset by addictions and related health issues, Piaf died in France in 1963 at the age of 47. She continues to be revered as a national treasure. This arrangement for SATB Saxophone Quartet is a medley of some of Piaf's most well-known songs and may be performed in its entirety, or each song may be played individually. If you choose the latter option do not play the transition measures between songs. In order, the songs are La Vie en rose (Take Me To Your Heart Again), Piaf’s signature song; Milord (or Ombre de la Rue [Shadow of the Street]); Sous le ciel de Paris; Padam, padam and Non, je ne regrette rien (No, I do not regret anything). This arrangement is suitable for a wide variety of performance and concert settings. The duration is 10:02. Contact me at james.pybus56@gmail.com.
