Thomas Fortmann is a composer with a rich and varied set of styles and inspirations, ranging from jazz, rock (he was a rock musician for many years working with Frank Zappa among others), German cabaret and theatre-music, to serialism and modernist techniques. This creates a unique soundworld of likeable, fascinating music, often with a distinct sense of humour. These first recordings of music for saxophone (and saxophone quartet) demolish boundaries and are played by some of Europe’s foremost sax players.

The sheet music for Sonkran, Bach Cab, Sonata and Sonatina are published by Muller & Schade of Bern , Switzerland and can be purchased from us.
