Berger: Columbo On The Corner 3 Movements for Saxophone Quartet in Memory of John Carisi

John Carisi was a complete original both as a composer and as a person. His scruffy, unassuming demeanor,which concealed the sharpest of minds, combined with the wrinkled trench coat he often wore reminded those who knew him of the seemingly absent minded detective played by Peter Falk in the eponymous TV series. I would occasionally run into him on a midtown street corner where a casual hello would often turn into an hour-long discussion of music.
