Sizeable Outfits, Enviable Outcomes: Large Ensembles In Pursuit Of Excellence

Perhaps nothing better symbolizes dogged persistence than the proliferation of large ensembles in every corner of the jazz world.

Risk-taking singer Fay Victor's powerhouse new album for ESP-Disk is called We've Had Enough, but the title could easily be used on Angel Bat Dawid's latest as well.
