- ALL THAT JAZZ (Wulf Muller)

 

“The Presentation of this music amounts to a memorial service befitting one given top-dog status, for Leonhart has assembled, in addition to his orchestra, a cadre of celebrity soloists: Elvis Costello, Joshua Redman, Chris Potter, Larry Goldings, Donny McCaslin, Nels Cline and Bill Frisell all take all-star turns at the front lectern”
