Jim Widner - Flying High

The fourth installment in an impressive series of big band recordings by this contemporary ensemble, "Flying High" combines fresh charts (by Kim Richmond, Phil DeGreg, Dave Pietro, Dick Lieb, Brett Stamps, and Rick Stitzel) and crisp performances. Jim Widner calls this recording "the most rewarding project the band has done yet." to quote guitarist John Pizzarelli, "He (Widner) always brings out the best in the musicians he plays with and the music he plays."
