Well, I for one, was disappointed by the Carl Fisher Rose accompaniments. I found them, for the most part, plodding and unimaginative in most of the "slow" studies, and the tempi insanely fast in some of the fast ones!
As for a saxophone version of the Rose 32: it pre-exists the Rose. It's called "48 Etudes" by Ferling, Op. 31. Originally written for oboe, they are a perfect fit for sax, and were, in part, adapted by Rose for his clarinet students. There exists a dedicated saxophone version, edited by Marcel Mule, that adds extra studies and duets, by Mule. Leave it to the scholars at Carl Fisher to retro-adapt the already-adapted work.
As far as I'm concerned, the clarinet world is still waiting for satisfactory Rose accompaniments!
