youth comes of age
I am an older mainstream jazz lover, none of the hard edgy stuff for me. I heard a song, not knowing who the artist was, and was hooked. It is unfair to make comparisions, but I hear the technique of Wynton Marsalis with an orignal virtuosity. I love this stuff, so well played and composed. Please come to Boston, and bring your fresh sound!

Latin flavours
It was on Amazon's very helpful suggestion that I decided to give this dude a try. They probably figured I'd like his Latin-influenced sound on account of the fact that I'm known to be a huge fan of David Sánchez. The funny thing is, even though Miguel Zenón actually featured on a number of Sánchez's albums - albums that I own to boot - I would never have figured looking for his solo work on my own. I'm just not that sharp. Not anymore anyway. I put it down to old age.

HIS FINEST EFFORT SO FAR IF NOT A MASTERPIECE
Romance ,elegance ,refinement,melody,beauty,and harmony.What else do you want .One of the most expressive alto saxophonists of his generation in modern jazz ,which communicates with his audience stronger and stronger with every new recording he releases .His best so far and one of the best jazz releases for this decade .VERY SOPHISTICATED SOUND FROM THIS FINE ARTIST .

Beautiful, beautiful music!
Excellent writing and great musicianship! Zenon's sound on the alto sax is so distinctive.... Definitively one of the best jazz recordings so far this year. I can't wait to hear this group again live!
