What THE PRESS Are Saying
“Not since Claire Daly has anyone
found such a piping sweet spot on the baritone saxophone a Chicago reed man Jimmy Farace…An impressive launch for an outstanding new voice on baritone sax.”
— Downbeat Magazine
“Talent Deserving of Wider Recognition”
— Bill Milkowski
“Jimmy Farace makes a strong statement on this debut album. His baritone playing is excellent and he also proves to be an imaginative arranger. There have been a lot of saxophone-and-strings albums over the years, but the variety and sheer beauty of the music on this one is special.”
— All About Jazz
“As a baritone player, Farace has it all”
— Abe Goldstein Papatamus Redux
