O’s Notes: Soprano saxophonist David Liebman plays with the CNY Jazz Orchestra, that’s Central New York (Syracuse), in a historic session that was performed in 2011 celebrating the 15th Anniversary season of the orchestra. It was appreciated so much that there was a promise to record it! That promise comes to fruition here over a decade later after finally securing funding. The music speaks for itself, a delightful large ensemble with polished horns. If A White Horse From Jerusalem was ever needed, we could surely use it now, with all the harmony of this album!
