DESCRIPTION:
"Candles" is a collection of very mellow, soft, and relaxing jazz standards performed on tenor saxophone and grand piano. It's the kind of music you'd want to put on if you were going to sit down late in the evening and enjoy a snifter of cognac.

Many of these songs are available as backing tracks at:

"Blue Moon" is a fine collection of very mellow and romantic standards. It's unique in that it is performed with sax and piano only, so it has a very spacious and beautiful sound, with lots of subtle elements.

The pianist, Danilo Santinelli, is a remarkable musician and educator from Argentina whom I met through a mutual friend in California, Larry Brooding, who engineered the meeting between Danilo and I, knowing that sparks would fly, and fly they did. After our first time playing together, I knew we had to get it recorded, so we immediately began planning a recording session. This music is a product of that session.

We really labored over the tune list. We wanted to find songs that were classics but that would lend themselves to a spacious rendition. And during the recording session we continually reminded ourselves to keep it mellow, to lay back. So this collection is really, really mellow, and very consistently so.

In fact, I like to say that this album is like a snifter of fine cognac: dark, rich, mellow, and relaxing. I hope you agree.

Enjoy!
