This
recording is such a major success that it is surprising that altoist
has rarely recorded in this context. The all-star octet not only features the altoist/leader but trumpeter
, trombonist
, baritone saxophonist
, the innovative French horn player
(a major factor in this music), pianist
, bassist
, and drummer
. This set (reissued by
on CD) consists entirely of
' five-part
suite, which clocks in around 38 minutes. The colorful arrangements use the distinctive horns in inventive fashion and the music (which leaves room for many concise solos) holds one's interest throughout. One of
' finest recordings, it's a true gem. ~ Scott Yanow
