Hailed by Radio Canada jazz critic Stanley Pean as “an extraordinary trumpeter”, Lex French is fast becoming a bright star on the Canadian jazz scene, and is a highly in-demand composer and arranger. For this show, Lex will present music from his latest album, along with new compositions and well known jazz standards.
Joining are François Bourassa (piano), Walter Stinson (bass), and Jim Doxas (drums), all of whom are improvising musicians of the highest order who bring their individual and personal approaches to the music but also function as members of the group in order to create a whole that is great than the sum of its parts.
