CSU faculty member Peter Sommer's work on trombonist and composer Nelson Hinds' Streamin' album received a fantastic review from JazzReview.com: "Standout contributions include every solo by Peter Sommer. His dance through the changes of 'Monk's Happy Meal' is as interesting a solo as any on the disc. His flawlessly executed lines eventually deconstruct into lopsided trills that trail off into intentionally disjunct lines which mimic the upcoming melody perfectly. There is great care and knowledge of his art in every note he plays." READ MORE |
