Wrap Around Straight for Alto Saxophone and Piano

This driving minor swing melody in 3/4 time evokes the mood of 1960’s Soho, London. An era of gambling, gangsters and smokey jazz clubs. The piece is a great introduction to jazz phrasing and articulations, whilst giving the more experienced players a chance to develop in the ‘jazz waltz’ idiom.
