Antoine Roney
Inspired by what he heard, the young musician pursued studies in both alto and tenor sax, and in 1992 released his first album, "The Traveler". After a few years of touring, he issued a second album, "Whirling," in 1996. In 2006, Roney self-released two more albums, including a duet with Daniel Moreno.
Always vastly active, he continues to tour and play extensively with his own trio, and has recently participated in the Miles Davis tribute project Bitches Brew Revisited, with drummer Cindy Blackman.

That You Not Dare To Forget is a slightly less than half-hour audio ...

This is her first stateside recording, and it is an innovative album for people fond of crossing cultures, mindscapes, ethnic and racial boundaries. She kicks things off with a grittier, rougher version of ...

by Jack Bowers
A well--formed program of contemporary Jazz (for the most part anyway), presented for a good cause as well. A part of the net proceeds from Endlessmiles, recorded by a number of all--star groups at New York City's Birdland on May 26, 1998--the 72nd anniversary of the late trumpeter's birth--will be used to help establish an endowment for young musicians, the MilesDavis.com scholarship, to be administered by the International Association of Jazz Educators (IAJE). Two of the eight songs ...
