The Natural Moment is a studio album by jazz alto saxophonist Christopher Hollyday.

This was alto saxophonist Christopher Hollyday's third album.

[3] Hollyday "performs five of his driving originals and a song apiece from Peter Bernstein, Walter Davis Jr., John Webber, and Cole Porter.

[3] The Chicago Tribune reviewer commented that Hollyday's album "represents a musical advance over his second and almost justifies the attention given his first".

[1] The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote that "the music seems over-intense, as if Hollyday were reacting to the usual charges of neo-conservatism by trying to prove how impolite he can be".
