Avalon Serenade - Wilson Somers Trio

Here is a collection of songs that Wilson Somers uses to showcase his trio. The CD is mixed well with jazz standards as well as original compositions by Wilson. I am sure this CD will appeal to his many fans that have enjoyed his playing over the years.

Wilson Somers is also quite a composer of catchy jazz melodies that seem to stick with the listener after the song has ended. His originals are melodic enough to be enjoyed by casual listeners, and interesting enough harmonically for musicians to want to play.

The musicians are swinging thru-out the CD, and everyone listening will surely be moved by it.
