View read count
A new release from one of the genre's most polished ensembles! The Miami Saxophone Quartet's latest CD, Fourtified, offers up yet another collection of strikingly original compositions and arrangements, this time utilizing all varieties of accompaniment, including percussion, drums, bass, piano, guitar, synthesizers, even a string quartet.

Alto saxophonist Gary Lindsay contributes three arrangements: two Brubeck classics, “It's a Raggy Waltz" and “Blue Rondo a la Turk," and Ron Miller's “Seventh Sign." Ed Calle adds two well-crafted originals, “Spunky" and “Dancing On a Cloud". Perhaps the most interesting number here is Lindsay's “Jazz Suite for Double Quartet", which features both Miami Sax Quartet and the Bergonzi String Quartet performing in tandem.

Guest artists include Richard Bravo, Lee Levin, Dan Warner, Jim Gasior, Mike Harvey, Chuck Bergeron, and the Bergonzi String Quartet. A must have for all saxophone aficionados, straight ahead jazz lovers, and those who appreciate adventurous configurations.
