Bossa of Possibility
BluJazz Records announces the release of pianist and composer Jon Gold’s new album of 12 original compositions entitled “Bossa of Possibility”. Legendary saxophonist Phil Woods says this about “Bossa of Possibility”:
"I first heard Brazilian music in 1956 when I was with the Dizzy Gillespie big band. As soon as we landed the local cats turned us on to this incredible music - and the sound is still indelibly inscribed on what's left of my addled be-bop brain. Jon has captured the depth of this genre on this work. I felt much the same passion as I felt back then when first listened to it. Bravo!"
This album is deeply influenced by Jon’s experience in jazz, Latin and classical music and features the playing of the world-renowned musicians including:
Dave Liebman (sax): Considered one of the greatest living saxophonists, Dave is the recipient of the National Endowment of the Arts Masters of Jazz Award (2011).
Howard Levy (harmonica): Grammy Award winning Levy, is a founding member of Bela Fleck and the Fl
