Alyn Shipton's selection of jazz in all style and from all eras includes music from the Sauter-Finegan Orchestra, who experimented with instrumentation and texture in their music.
In this week's pick of requests for jazz in all styles and from all eras, Alyn Shipton's selection includes music from the Sauter-Finegan Orchestra. This band, led by the innovative arrangers Eddie Sauter and Bill Finegan, experimented with instrumentation and texture to create some entirely original big band music in the early 1950s, which was massively influential on subsequent large jazz orchestras.
