Arranging for sax quartet has been a favorite of Houndog’s, ever since his friend Bagel (not his legal name, but that’s what Houndog calls him!) gave him a cassette tape of some french classical sax quartet performances. The sound was beautiful and humorous at the same time and inspired Houndog to start arranging some of his favorite pop music (Doo-wop, Motown, Ska, Broadway, Soul, TV themes, etc) for it. In college he wrote his first original piece for it. More recently, he has expanded that sound into a quintet, incorporating his beloved bass sax, Oscar. Please enjoy some of these arrangements in the player below (scroll down in player for more tracks).
