With the release of Some Days Are Better: The Lost Scores, the musical personality of trumpeter-composer Kenny Wheeler is further illuminated! Brilliant performances by both Nick Smart and John Daversa, alongside Evan Parker, Norma Winstone and the bands of the Royal Academy of Music Jazz Orchestra and Frost Jazz Orchestra. This recording is being released in conjunction with Brian Shaw and Nick Smart’s profound upcoming biography, Song for Someone: The Musical Life of Kenny Wheeler, set for release on February 14, 2025, via Equinox.
Nick and John join Dave to talk about both projects. Kenny’s music shines as brightly as ever. Early works finally have a full on recording, and the three discuss Wheeler’s processes and practices.
