The Upward Stream Concerto for Tenor Saxophone and Orchestra Movement III
by Russell Peck and performed by the Baytown Symphony Orchestra
Maestro Dennis Eichler conducting
Featured Soloist - Nathan Harman
Performance Date - May 1st, 2009
This piece was originally written for classical saxophonist James Houlik and performed and recorded by the London Symphony. This performance was dedicated to Peck and his family; Peck passed away earlier this year.
The concert featured two student soloist winners who earned the opportunity to solo with the orchestra: Nathan Harman on Tenor Saxophone and Melissa Pichardo on Trumpet
I like the piece...recording isn't the best, but the playing is pretty great for being 17 years old! I'm a college freshman and thinking of using this for a concerto competition in a few years.

hate to say this as the soloist is very good good, and obviously more experianced, and perhaps its the conducttor, buutt
this is too slow, i have recordings of this that are just a little bit faster and it makes it so much better

I wish I could have gone. It probably would have been even better in person. And with that said, it's amazing even on video.
