Marsalis,branford - Sound Of The Sun - Music CD

The soulful sounds of the saxophone played by multi-Grammy-winning Branford Marsalis pairs perfectly with the evocative works of British composer Sally Beamish and Mahler. Led by Eric Jacobsen with the Virginia Symphony Orchestra, this album delivers the songful melancholy of the Mahler songs, played by Marsalis, combined with the freneticism and imagery of Sally Beamish's two rarely heard works, brought to a center stage.
