Anthony Wilson – Anthony Wilson

Anthony Wilson is a gifted guitarist, composer and arranger and winner of the BMI/Thelonious Monk Composers Competition. He also happens to be the son of big band legend Gerald Wilson. On this debut album (nominated for a Grammy for Best Large-Ensemble Jazz Album), the younger Wilson proves he is a fresh and original voice on the jazz scene, as he leads his nine-piece band through a collection of imaginative originals and innovative arrangements on jazz standards. Bill Holman calls the CD inventive and daring and Ben Sidran hails it as an instant classic!
