Harry Skoler: A Work of Heart

Read "A Work of Heart" reviewed by Mike Neely

by Mike Neely

Throughout A Work of Heart clarinetist Harry Skoler displays an intimate, chamber swing sensibility that sings above a finely meshed group of musicians. Skoler is not interested in pyrotechnics; he is interested in the emotional nuances of ten carefully chosen compositions.

by Mark Corroto

Sherri Roberts: Dreamsville

Read "Dreamsville" reviewed by Jim Santella

by Jim Santella

Singer Sherri Roberts has a pleasant, expressive alto voice, scat-sings and interprets lyrics, uses a vibrato somewhat wider than most, and fades from the limelight at will.
