Urban Flower

Little Sunflower  excerpt

While this program ended in July 2021 after 15 years, I very much enjoyed hosting/producing 'Acoustic Frontiers' a 90 minute program airing electroacoustic and computer processed music by composers from around the world on CKCU fm - ckcufm.com - in Ottawa Ontario Canada.  

Additionally, as you will hear from the tunes that I have posted here, I play sax, mostly jazz, and have done some recordings of original tunes.  The most recent posts are from my current project, 45north band, a 5 piece band playing a Canadian jazz repertoire.  

Mostly these recordings are basement projects.

I also have been on bari sax in a nonet, Alternate Takes.  We recorded our 2nd CD 'Urban Flower' a while back that was released in 2018 with our concert at Merrickville's Jazz Fest.  I've posted a short clip of the first tune from that CD, 'Little Sunflower'
