DISSERTATION/THESIS/RESEARCH PAPER/CREATIVE PROJECT: The
Saxophone Music of Alain Crepin.

Alain Crepin is a Belgian saxophonist and composer who has contributed
significantly to the saxophone repertoire. His compositions and arrangements, however,
are known more in Europe than in the United States. The purpose of this paper is to
introduce the reader to Crepin’s saxophone works so that musicians in the United States
can become aware of his compositions. The information on Crepin was gathered from
compact disc liner notes, Crepin's professional webpage, and personal interviews. This
paper will highlight several of his significant saxophone compositions, his biography and
background, his impressive career as a performer and teacher, and his approach to music
composition.
