O’s Notes: Tsuyoshi Niwa plays soprano sax and flute while leading a strong band with Randy Brecker (t, flugelhorn), Billy Kilson (d), Phil Palombi (b) and Yuichi Inoue (p). This is a swinging ensemble that has spontaneity, polish and pizzazz! All of the songs are first takes and actually recorded in the same order as at the session. Niwa wrote all of the music except his fresh arrangement of “My Favorite Things”. At The End Of The Day is a promising session worthy of a toast.
