Rob Ryndak & Tom Lockwood: Gratitude

Read "Gratitude" reviewed by Nicholas F. Mondello

by Nicholas F. Mondello

There's poignancy about the titles of the selections on this fine album that generates reflection. Perhaps that was the intention of the two composers, Rob Ryndak and Tom Lockwood. However, the music of Gratitude—all original, highly textural—solidifies this supposition. Incorporating a crew of fine Chicago-area musicians along with guest trumpeter Brian Lynch, Ryndak ...
