I have a new CD that I am very happy with. It's called "Time Again: Brubeck Revisited" and it is released by a label from New York called Sunnyside. I am so pleased with what the label is doing! There is a very nice review at www.allaboutjazz.com, and the CD is currently being played on the local jazz station KXJZ and getting "heavy" rotation on Bob Parloche's syndicated program on 200 stations nationwide.

The album features the wonderful compositions of Dave Brubeck. It also features two startling young musicians (both 19) who are on full scholarship at the Brubeck Institute. They are bassist Joe Sanders and percussionist Justin Brown. We very rarely ever hear talent at this level at such a young age in the Sacramento area. As they will soon move to L.A. and New York, I wanted to make sure our local audiences have the opportunity to hear such inspiring talent.

Our CD release trio concert was at American River College on Saturday, March 13, 2004. Proceeds from the concert went partially to the ARC music department as a fundraiser, and partially to continue recording activities for Sunnyside.
