Read "Windward Bound" reviewed by Jack Bowers

by Jack Bowers

Windward Bound, the debut recording by the Toronto-based Dennis Kwok Jazz Orchestra, consists of a six-part suite “for jazz orchestra and multiple woodwind soloist." It is perhaps more than coincidental that Kwok, who wrote and arranged the sequence of tone poems based in part on his teen-age memories of sailing on Lake Ontario, also plays alto, ...

Read "Lift Off" reviewed by Dan Bilawsky

by Dan Bilawsky
