Supremely satisfying music for sax section
and rhythm section by Jerry Dodgion
Available on CD and in print!
"Throughout the big band era the moments
when the sax section was featured always
piqued my interest as a truly enjoyable musical
individuality of musical expression among
the various composers and arrangers led me
to a deep appreciation for the interpretive
saxophonists. The manner in which they would
together bring the written music to life is a
beautifully inspiring phenomenon."
"In the real world of democratically enthusiastic
ensemble playing, where each individual voice is
equally important, there are in my estimation
few musical rewards that can compare with
individuals with a loving unity of purpose through
sensitive melodic and rhythmic interpretation, striving together to meet
the challenge of bringing beautiful music to life" -Jerry
Dodgion-
