Jazz Flutist Nika Rejto releases 6th cd, Little Wizdoms Songs from my Heart 9-3-12
Perhaps one of the best kept secrets in the Bay Area Jazz Scene is Nika Rejto, flutist extraordinaire. She is living proof that good things come in small packages, yet despite her pixie-like demeanor, this lady can swing with the best. Dr. Herb Wong says, “Anyone hearing Nika is simply knocked out by her remarkably gorgeous tone - something from the angels.” Jack Bowers of Jazz Now compares her to “Old hands Frank Wess, Herbie Mann, James Moody.” The late Bob Tate writes “Nika’s improvisation was beautiful, imaginative, swinging, anything but predictable.”. Check out Nika's performances at Yoshi’s Jazz Club, Jack London Sq. on August 28, 2006 celebrating her CD, Teazing Socrates. Nika toots infectious, energetic jazz with classical and Middle Eastern undercurrents. Her stellar band includes John Santos, Rick Vandivier, Perry Thoorsell, Paul Van Waginengen, Murray Low, and Vicki Burns.
