MP3 – Rhapsody in Blue

From Saxtet’s “Montage” album.

Original album description:

Montage

• a world of varied musical images from North African Jazz, Irish pipe music, U.S. fusion and orchestral masterpieces in stunning new arrangements.
• takes its inspiration from Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition carrying the idea a step further in this audacious and demanding musical collage.
• is assembled from pieces to which the saxophone can bring something new.

Montage features Nigel Wood on soprano sax and keyboards, Gerard McChrystal on alto and soprano sax and WX7 Wind Synth, Andrew Tweed on tenor and soprano sax and percussion, and Lionel Ferer on baritone sax and percussion.
