Greg Abate \/ Gary Smulyan Quartet\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 – \u00a0 Dobbs Ferry Riverfront Park\u00a0\u00a0 – \u00a0 August 18, 2010<\/p>\n

Am I the only one finding it peculiar that the baritone sax players (in this case Abate) double on alto (both are E-flat) but rarely on tenor (which is B-flat), while the tenor players more likely skip up to soprano (also B-flat) when they double?\u00a0 So we had an occasional double bari-sax front line in this piano-less combo.\u00a0 Lots of open spaces and they knew what to put there.\u00a0 A healthy mix of standards and originals; the finale was a zippy 2-bari chase through a Bird tune transcription.\u00a0 After one of the best sunsets of the year over the Hudson.<\/p>\n
