The Dynamic Sound Patterns

The Dynamic Sound Patterns (subtitled of the Rod Levitt Orchestra) is the debut album led by American jazz trombonist Rod Levitt which was recorded in 1963 for the Riverside label.

Reception
AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars stating "even though Dynamic Sound Patterns isn't an orchestral project in the true sense, Levitt still gives the band a very big, full sound. There are eight musicians onboard -- five horns and a rhythm section -- but Levitt gives the illusion that he is leading a larger outfit... much of the material has a Thelonious Monk-influenced angularity. Dynamic Sound Patterns didn't make Levitt a huge name in the jazz world; nonetheless, this album is an enjoyable demonstration of his skills as both soloist and an arranger/bandleader".
