HAVE BAND WILL TRAVEL
[SUMMIT 535]

'Stan Kenton's legacy is in good hands... The music takes on new life and new meaning, as it should, to keep Stan's music alive and perpetuate the roots of American jazz history. Altogether, the ensemble and soloist work on the CD exhibits the band's love and respect for the man who brought us his own unique approach to jazz'.

RIYEL
  [SUMMIT 515]

A blending of three incredibly talented musicians with an array of dynamic special guests, RIYEL (pronounced ree-YELL) combines the most powerful and seductive Caribbean styles with a broad mix of other musical traditions to create a recording that is accessible, funky, heartwarming, and just downright great music! Complete with liner notes in three languages (English, French & Haitian Kreyol), RIYEL welcomes you to the powerful musical genre of “Haitian Jazz".

Chicago Chamber Ensemble - Wind Serenades  Gateway Chamber Ensemble
WIND SERENADES  [SUMMIT 538]

'Of the recorded performances I know of the Mozart...I would pick the new Gateway Chamber Ensemble out of the pack, not only for its refined playing, but for finding that elusive balance between the music's high-spirited playfulness and its sensuous soulfulness. Merriment and melancholy mix in matched measure in Mozart's masterpiece...For wind playing par excellence, this release receives the strongest recommendation.'
