O’s Notes: Jimbo Ross plays viola and violin leading a quintet with Joe Gaeta (g), Stuart Elster (p), Peter Marshall (b), and Ron Wagner (d). Among Ross’s arsenal is a customized 5-string, classic viola, reproduced on a 3-D printer! Melodies are packed with energy on a mix of standards and originals including strong performances by Elster, Gary’s, and Ross. “Jingles”, “Lolita”, and “Know It All” are among the best of thirteen songs on Jazz Passion & Satin Latin.
