Kenny Wheeler is undoubtedly one of the historically greatest composers for jazz orchestra. His influence on jazz composition and large ensemble composing has been enormous.

 

This gorgeous last large work and should be in the collection of all Wheeler fans, and fans of the jazz orchestra.

 

We were immensely fortunate to have Wheeler's long-time collaborator, Norma Winstone for the recording
