music #5

"Spend some time listening to a few of the great tenor saxophone players mentioned in chapter 7 (such as Sunny Rollins, John Coltrane, or Dexter Gordon, to name a few). Who is your favorite and why? Try to frame your answer using what you have learned in this class thus far. Speak to their improvisation technique, their individual sound (timbre), and anything else that you think makes your case. Pretend you are their greatest fan and you are trying to convince your friends to check out your chosen favorite. List specific tunes and recordings you believe represents their playing best."
