On his breathtaking new album ENDURING SONANCE, veteran saxophonist and flutist Steve Wilson celebrates the music that has left the deepest imprint on his musical life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e“Some of the tunes on this record have stayed with me for, in some cases, over 50 years from the time that I first heard them,” Wilson says. “I wanted to put some music out there that people can connect with, no matter what kind of music they like.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eOriginally conceived as a ballads project, ENDURING SONANCE evolved into something broader and more personal. Rather than focusing on tempo or style, Wilson gravitated toward a sense of lyricism—music whose emotional clarity and melodic resonance endure across genres, decades, and listening habits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eTo realize this vision, Wilson assembled a deeply intuitive ensemble featuring pianist and arranger Renee Rosnes, vibraphonist Joe Locke, bassist Jay Anderson, and drummer Kendrick Scott, with special guest Kevin Newton (French horn, Imani Winds) appearing on two tracks. Each musician brings a rare sensitivity to melody, texture, and space, allowing the material to unfold with warmth, restraint, and quiet authority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe repertoire draws from a wide musical landscape, including works by close collaborators and modern jazz masters Billy Childs and George Cables, alongside enduring songs by Michel Legrand, Quincy Jones, Milton Nascimento, Gino Vannelli, Bill Lee, and Eliane Elias. These are not standards in the traditional sense, but deeply personal selections—songs that have accompanied Wilson through different chapters of his life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e“These songs are the soundtrack of my life,” Wilson says. “I’d love it if listeners came away from this album with the same kind of enduring sound and feeling.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e1 Quiet Girl (Billy Childs) 5:55\u003cbr\u003e\n2 Helen's Song (George Cables) 4:55\u003cbr\u003e\n3 Pieces of Dreams (Michel Legrand \/ Alan \u0026amp; Marilyn Bergman_ 6:04\u003cbr\u003e\n4 How Long?
