Kenny Wheeler: Songs for Quintet
by Robert Bush
Recorded less than a year before his death, trumpeter Kenny Wheeler's swan song is a document that sings with smoldering beauty and palpable heartache--all captured in the typically sublime detail that has become the trademark of the ECM label. Wheeler concentrates on flugelhorn throughout, and his long-time association with saxophonist Stan Sulzmann ...
Kenny Wheeler: Songs for Quintet
by Glenn Astarita
Songs for Quintet marks celebrated Kenny Wheeler's final recording. He passed away on Sept 18, 2014.

Like it or not, a new wave of young composer / arrangers has surfaced, scrupulously guiding big bands into heretofore uncharted waters, now and then smooth, at other times choppy, but always intriguing and inspired.

Kenny Wheeler: Six for Six
by John Kelman
