Title: monoliths from Maslanka
Review: Jordheim et al. play musically and technically challenging music with equanimity. I particularly recommend this CD for its inclusion of the Song Book for Alto Saxophone and Marimba--a lesser-known work for an unusual ensemble, presented here by a fine pair of artists. The piece lacks the (admittedly few) problems I have with Maslanka's saxophone sonata, namely repetitiveness...indeed, Song Book is deceptively simple but well worth a listen.
