Michael Bailey, All About Jazz.com ********************************************************* I had the extraordinary privilege and good fortune to work closely with Hank Jones as an arranger during 2009-2010. During this time, I discovered that Hank, known to most as a consummate pianist, is also a fantastic composer! I'm delighted to have the opportunity to perform some of Hank's incredible original compositions and to help keep his spirit alive through this music. Joining me for this performance are the extraordinary Scott Wendholt, Rich Perry, Mike McGuirk, and Anthony Pinciotti. It's going to be a great evening of music! -Richard Sussman write your comments about the article :: © 2013 Jazz News :: home page |
