A brilliant performance featuring Art Pepper's alto saxophone
The pinnacle of modern jazz, performed by an 11-piece ensemble.
Pepper's flowing, emotive alto saxophone harmonizes beautifully with the sophisticated big band sound of Marty Paich's arrangements. Pepper's improvisations shine on each track, showcasing fresh interpretations of jazz standards. This album showcases the height of West Coast jazz perfection.
