Furthering The Flute In Jazz: Holly Hofmann and Bill McBirnie
by Dan Bilawsky
Long gone are the days when the flute was only seen as a jazz novelty or a saxophonist's double. Once upon a time you could count the number of notable jazz flautists on a hand (or two), but the ranks have swelled a little bit over the years, and those leading the charge today aren't content ...

Bill McBirnie: Nature Boy
by Jack Bowers
Now that the great Moe Koffman is no longer among us, there’s an opening in Canada for an outstanding straight-ahead jazz flutist, and I suspect that, with Nature Boy, Bill McBirnie has submitted his application and staked his claim. In the liner notes McBirnie is modest about his talents, but he needn’t be. He has great ...
