This week we once again present our own resident quintet that includes Don Anderson on trumpet, Jason Robinson on sax, George Kaye on bass, Paul Arslanian on piano and in Jon's place, Bob Weiner on drums. I am personally excited to be premiering a new work of mine, composed in collaboration with Kimaya Diggs who penned the lyrics for the work. Kimaya will be joining us on the first number to perform this piece entitled "The Dream". As in the past, we will also be playing tunes written or arranged by all members of he quintet.
