Late summer of 2021, emerging and very much in demand saxophonist Emilio Modeste and his gifted band of young jazz warriors filmed a beyond impressive and very memorable NPR Live Session in our performance studio. Emilio's session also introduced us to the magic that is indeed Gina D'Soto! We immediately invited Gina to return for a session featuring her own project. Since her inaugural session, I've been waiting patiently for her to complete her debut recording project. Scheduled for full release later this year, Gina has just made the second single from the project available. Gina D'Soto's "The Way" is an inspiring and uplifting experience that reminds you to embrace and enjoy life every day. Flutist Elena Pinderhughes' solo adds beautifully to the warmth of this refreshing anthem that also encourages you to be the architect of your future.
