To some, a tenor-to-alto switch may not seem to be a newsworthy matter, but for the initiated it's the stuff of headlines. An inveterate tenor at the apex of the scene for more than three decades, Eric put the alto away in his teen years and never looked back. \"But with the dearth of opportunities to play during the pandemic, I started to work on it,\" he confesses. After successfully pitching the idea of using his second saxophone-with-strings project as a debut on alto, the present recording is quite simply astounding. Working with his regular rhythm section and adding ace string arrangements, this altoist delivers one revelatory performance after another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlues for Diane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Embraceable You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e All My Tomorrows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Maybe September\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e To Love and Be Loved\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Anita\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e She Was Too Good to Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Too Late Now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Blues for Diane (Alternate Take)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50521835176210,"sku":"632375734220","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/eric-alexander-a-new-beginning-alto-saxophone-with-strings-cd","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
