Phil Dwyer Orchestra - Changing Seasons [CD]

Acclaimed saxophonist composer/bandleader Phil Dwyer terms Changing Seasons "my most ambitious project yet, without a doubt." That's saying something, given his resume and adventurous spirit. Changing Seasons is a compelling violin concerto, featuring internationally renowned violin virtuoso Mark Fewer that bridges the jazz and classical worlds in seamless fashion. Changing Seasons is inspired by John Coltrane as much as Vivaldi, and the combination of a large band with horns and a massed string section integrates these diverse musical elements in a truly fresh and accessible way.
