Lorraine Desmarais Trio ‘Couleurs de Lune’ Album Review

It’s more than time to add another name to the list of great Canadian musical trios, specifically the Lorraine Desmarais Trio.

Trumpeter Chris Botti trumps all young jazz instrumentalists on record and on stage at the Orpheum Theatre.

Celebrating Bird is a beautifully written book, and in this carefully updated version, it is a scintillating, moving tribute.

Chris Botti wowed the crowd as well as the orchestra in delivering one of the best concerts heard in Vancouver this year.

Esperanza Spalding is one terrific jazz bassist as well as a very swinging singer.

Her command over her own voice and the keyboard, coupled with a compelling stage presence, make Joanna an artist not easily forgotten.
