Hey Gary. First off, I am a total fan of your saxophone literature. I'm not sure if there's just way too much reverb in this recording but it makes it hard to hear the piece. Your pieces, I believe, are meant to be played by a live saxophone, because I feel that the saxophone samples on Garritan really don't sound like saxophones.

Thanks for listening, Nievesvillasenor,

I have had another listener who used to remind me about reverb, but he hasn't posted here in awhile.
Try listening again. I've removed almost all reverb so the alto is a distnct sound.

I concur - it almost sounds like the music is being performed (with apologies to The Disney Company) under the sea

Thanks for listening, Wfeather. You didn't comment on the music.

p.s.
I think the problem is an over-active piano part whic is helped by a more distant sound from the piano. Any reverb still covered the alto.

Thanks for listening, Wfeather. You didn't comment on the music.

That is because, at least to my ears, the music is very difficult to hear because of the "underwater" sound.
