The Making of an Album

“The instruments take on an especially lyrical, singing quality,
igniting the rarely-tapped Romantic potential of the saxophone-piano combination
which Johnson has mastered.”
—Anna Franco, Music and Vision Daily
What differentiates this album from the CD Serenade: Music for Saxophone & Piano?
- The Steinway Hall album is a live recording, with the unique energy of the premiere concert in the intimate setting of Steinway Hall. It has the uniquely rich sound that happens in that space.
- It includes movements of my Quintet which are not part of Serenade.
- The Steinway Hall album has unique artwork, photographs of the concert, and narrative liner notes.
- This album is not available digitally.
