SONNY FORTUNE , the great alto saxophonist, flutist and composer, is also a riveting improvisor who can play inside or out with a logic and passion that never loses the listener. Manhattan's now-defunct Jazz club Sweet Rhythm went out with a bang by hosting Sonny's first-ever live recording, featuring his current quartet of Michael Cochrane, David Williams, and Steve Johns. Sonny's had major media attention, with features on 48 Hours and CBS Sunday Morning, and in his monthly Jazz Times article, Nat Hentoff stated that Sonny "ought to be a National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master." Sonny's at the peak of his powers, so book him now. |
