o Intricate, melodic soundscapes played (and mainly composed) by Paul McCandless - oboe, English horn, bass clarinet, saxophone; Günter Wehinger – flute and Art Lande – piano.
o The music is a complex blend of classical, jazz and improvisation - and needless to say, the playing is technically flawless with plenty of soulful solos, imaginative space, and soaring melodies.
o During a distinguished career spanning over three decades Paul McCandless was a key member of Oregon and the original Paul Winter Consort. As a collaborator and solo artist he is credited with more than 200 albums and has performed/recorded with such musicians as Jaco Pastorius, Carla Bley, Wynton Marsalis, Pat Metheny, Steve Reich, Al Jarreau, Bruce Hornsby, Lyle Mays, Nguyen Le and Mark Isham. In 1996 he won a Grammy for Best Pop Instrumental as a guest member of Béla Fleck and the Flecktones.
