Hi Nigel, First Time I have seen this. It amazes me. Can tis instrument play a piece like "Song Bird" or "Titanic"? If can, I would like to hear it on your site. I also want to know, if we can buy each piece seperately?

Gregg Moran says:
I began playing instruments on the oboe. I have since moved to bassoon, but I also play all of the 4 major saxophone types (soprano-bari) with ease. I LOVE saxophone, and I'm just wondering, is the soprillo a good choice for me to take on as another instrument? I love the idea of it. Also, would my background in oboe help with embouchure? I'm fine with the other saxophones as far as that goes.
Nigel says:
Impossible for me to say as I don't play the oboe, although the playing the soprillo does involve plenty of pressure so the breathing aspects are at least similar.

Do you think that the "big" companys like Selmer, Cannonball, Yanagisawa, and Conn will pick up and produce the soprillo
Nigel says:
I've no idea - someone from Selmer was taking a keen interest in it recently at the RNCM Sax Day (UK).

Hi! My name is Edson Tadeu Ortolan. Brazilian composer. I'm interested to create contemporary classical solo pieces for the SOPRILLO. Atonalism, experimentalism and improvisation. I want to know more about this instrument.
Nigel says:
Edson, thanks for your interest - I'll be in touch with you soon about this.

I have been listening to the Soprillo CD.... it has a lovely round sound compared to the Piccolo & several people remarked on it.
