Description:
This is the first movement of the three-part suite titled 'The Big Street' which was recorded on the album 'The Fabulous Bill Holman' in 1957. Set in a medium-up Swing tempo/Feel, this piece is a wonderful example of Holman's use of counterpoint, moving unison sections against each other. There is lots of solo room for 2 Tenor Saxes, Trumpet and Piano. It certainly can stand alone as a single piece..... or be performed with the other 2 movements. 5-4-4-3 This is classic Holman!
