Steve Wilson: Enduring Sonance

Read "Enduring Sonance" reviewed by Andrew Schinder

by Andrew Schinder

Virginia-born, New York-based alto saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist Steve Wilson has created a sonic palette overflowing with delightfulness with Enduring Sonance, Wilson's debut album.

by Dan McClenaghan
