A Day in New York City for Alto Saxophone and Piano

From the Publisher

The composer’s first impressions of New York were from the deck of the Queen Mary 2 before light . Gradually, as the dawn mist lifted, the shape of the New York skyline came into view.

On visiting Central Park , the soulful playing of a lone alto saxophone player gave him the idea for this set of six pieces for Alto Saxophone and Piano which capture the movement and spirit of this great city.

The movements are titled: The City Awakes - Slow blues freely Central Park Blues – Slow blues The Plaza Hotel – Jazz waltz Romance - Adagio On Old Broadway – With a Broadway swagger Yellow Cabs – Molto vivo
