Poem for Tenor Saxophone & Orchestra

Imagine the scene ... an orchestra is playing a "modern" sounding piece in the distance. A short while later the soulful improvised melodies of a saxophone can be heard through the open window of a tenement building. Being midway between the two points of music, you hear what is rarely heard ... the electrifying combination of saxophone and orchestra. The central theme of the "Poem for Tenor Saxophone and Orchestra" is that of the tremendous influence that improvisation has had on the flavor of 20th century music.

Ron Miller premiered the piece with the Ohlone College Orchestra directed by Lawrence Kohl sometime in 1984, but the recording was a bit over modulated. This recording was made with the Many of One Orchestra.
