In April we received a second review of our newest CD. It is written by Jack Bowers in All About Jazz and below is an excerpt of the review. If you want to read the whole review, here’s the link.
“The Netherlands, with a population less than that of New York State, is home to no less than four of the world’s most accomplished jazz ensembles …. there is ample cause to argue that the MJO belongs at the very top of that plateau, steep as it may be.
………….. The section work (including rhythm) on Lookin’ East is unerring, the solos consistently bright and engaging. At the heart of it is Reinders, a virtuosic composer / arranger whose remarkable perception charts a steady course for the orchestra and keeps it hastening ceaselessly onward and upward.”
