Passion Flower

A tuneful jazz waltz. It begins with a tenor and baritone duet, but as the other instruments enter the tenor remains the lead voice and the featured instrument for the majority of the chart. These arrangements for saxophones and rhythm section, written for the Eastman School of Music’s award winning jazz ensemble, Saxology, showcase the saxophone section in unique and interesting ways. Though originally written for saxophones most of the arrangements include optional horn parts (flügelhorn/trumpet and trombone) and work equally well with a mixed instrumentation.
Instrumentation:
5 saxophones (AATTBar) with piano, guitar (ad lib), double bass, percussion
