The other saxophones, except as solo instruments, really don't have much point in the orchestra

Then, of course, I played alto and tenor, wherever there were jobs.

I would think, of all the saxophones, the baritone would be the most logical instrument if anybody was adding a voice to the symphony orchestra.

When we've finished the current tour I'm going to go back to Italy and see if I can do some more writing.

Now, the instrumentation in the jazz band and the jazz dance band has gone through many evolutions. For instance, in the 'twenties the tradition was two or three saxophones

New York is still where I live most of the time.

Actually, it is a fact that I've been doing more writing than playing in recent years.
