"The Presidio Saxophone Quartet "
Self entitled CD.

"It is not often that these pieces are recorded with the necessary seriousness to bring them to life. The Presidio Quartet, however, play with a sense of purpose that enables them to carry these pieces off. They wear their hearts on their sleeves, alternating vigorous dance style with foksong simplicity and always with attention to detail."
