Passing Glances by Ramon Rocker features a medium swing feel that is reminiscent of Stolen Moments by Oliver Nelson. The main soli section features the two altos in a duet against the accompanying three other saxophones. Originally written for five saxophones (AATTBar), piano, guitar, double bass, and percussion, this arrangement works equally well using the optional parts for a trumpet/flugelhorn and trombone.
