"Metroliner" brings to mindĀ a train ride through the US' Northeast corridor. This funky,Ā programmatic piece was awarded runner-up in the 2016 Ithaca College Jazz Ensemble Composition Contest.
"Metroliner" isĀ a great vehicle for your tenor soloist, and has meaty parts for all players, making this is an excellent selection for concerts and festivals.
As recorded by Rick Hirsch's Big Ol' Band on their 2017 albumĀ Pocono Git-Down.
