O’s Notes: Chicago-based saxophonist, composer, arranger, and music educator Sam Pilnick leads a band of local musicians for The Nonet Project, a mix of original compositions and fresh covers of jazz standards. They move into fusion on “Neon” featuring guitarist Andrew Subihaslip, but it is mostly modern jazz highlighted by “Southbound Trail” and “Life Is”.
