Search - Grant Stewart :: Around The Corner

The man with the big sound, tenor titan Grant Stewart, returns to Sharp Nine Records for his fourth release with a new weapon in his arsenal: he's added the soprano saxophone to his repertoire and the results are exceptional. His soprano rendition of Ray Evan's lesser-known gem Maybe September is a true highlight of the date. Stewart also busts loose on high speed tenor romps through Get Happy and Something's Gotta Give. Another new element of this recording is the inclusion of Peter Bernstein, one of jazz guitar's consummate pros. Bernstein provides the harmonic underpinning and stellar solos to make this a winning date. The jazz world is slowly waking up to the fact that Grant Stewart is among the very finest saxophonists on the scene. This recording will no doubt add to his admirers.
