Description
The British-born alto saxophonist Will Vinson has recently been making his name on the New York jazz scene. While growing up in London, Will co-led groups with, among others, Stan Sulzman and Tim Garland. He originally moved to NYC in 1999, to study with Bob Mintzer and the late, legendary composer/arranger, Manny Albam, and has now made his home there. Since his arrival in New York, Vinson has appeared and/or recorded with Mike Stern, Ingrid Jensen, Geoff Keezer, Vincent Herring and many others. After a recent UK appearance, Jack Massarik, described Will as "the thinking man's alto saxophonist... Britain's Greg Osby", and John Fordham described his "superb solo of rugged leathery sounds turning into mellifluous high notes". 'It's For You', is Vinson's debut recording as a leader and it features many of his regular New York musical sparring partners. Will's saxophone playing is executed with incredible power and dramatic sensitivity, and is characterised by his imposing sound and natural technique: an exciting new talent. Personnel: Will Vinson - (alto, soprano saxophone), Aaron Parks - (piano, Fender Rhodes), Sandra Hempel - (guitar), Thomas Morgan - (bass) Mark Ferber - (drums, percussion)
