Yesterday I did a really interesting activity with a student of mine, where we sat down and listened to 4 different sax players doing the 1st half a page of the Debussy. We then discussed what we liked about each/didn't like. So I'm asking what is your favourite recording of the Debussy and why? Also if you like attributes of other sax players interpretation's what were they?

I like Deffayet's, beautifully controlled tone.

The Rascher version is my least favorite recording of his.

And I agree, "comparative listening" is really an excellent listening activity.
