Triple Concerto No. 1 : For Alto Saxophone, Piano And Contrabass With Strings And Percussion. Full Score

Dmitri N. Smirnov Triple Concerto No. 1, Op. 21 (1977) for alto saxophone, piano, double bass, strings and percussion. To the 5th anniversary of my and my wife's wedding I wrote a little piece for alto saxophone on musical letters D-(e)S-E-F (for Dmitri Smirnov and Elena Firsova). But it was too short to be a completed and independent piece, and thinking how to develop it, I found myself working on a 3-movement concerto for 3 soloists, strings and percussion, with the lyrical First Movement (Lento), 3 cadenzas as the Second Movement (Risoiluto), and fast Finale (Allegro). It was premiered on 26th December 1977 at the Union of Composers in Moscow with Lev Mikhailov (saxophone), Alexander Bakhchiev (piano), Ivan Kotov (double bass) and Moscow Chamber Orchestra conducted by Lev Markiz.
