Description: ****Welcome to our listing, thanks very much for looking! While he's a fine tenor saxophonist, it's as a jazz and pop arranger that Bill Holman is best known. Holman's earliest writing for orchestral jazz can be heard with Stan Kenton's early-to-mid-1950's band, and later on for the bands of Woody Herman and Count Basie. VIEW FROM THE SIDE (1995) presents Bill Holman's arrangements for his own band of mostly West Coast-based players. While not avant-garde, Holman's music is still dense and elaborate; he manages to pack a great deal of musical information within any given track. But the arranger's music is always engaging, and fans of creative large group jazz should check it out.Out of print and a rare audiophile XRCD title, this is a FACTORY SEALED XRCD PRESSED and ISSUED by JVC on their XRCD 20-bit format, of a highly collectible title from their CD catalog, featuring - The Bill Holman BandBill Holman, conductorBill Perkins, soprano & alto saxophones, fluteRay Herrmann, soprano & tenor saxophonesLanny Morgan, alto saxophone, flutePete Christlieb, tenor saxophone, fluteBob Efford, baritone saxophone, bass clarinetCarl Saunders, Frank Szabo, Ron Stout, Bob Summers, trumpet, flugelhornJack Redmond, Andy Martin, tromboneBob Enevoldsen, valve tromboneKenny Shroyer, bass tromboneRich Eames, pianoDoug MacDonald, electric guitarDave Carpenter, acoustic bassBob Leatherbarrow, drums XRCD Title - A View From The Side Track Listing - 1.
