Zurich Jazz Orchestra ft. Dave Taylor (btb) und Daniel Schnyder (comp., saxes) at Moods

For Ed Partyka, himself a bass trombonist, the project has a special significance:
"Dave Taylor has been an idol of mine since I met him in the 1980s when he played with the George Gruntz Concert Jazz Band. We've gotten to know each other better over the last 15 years and we've been talking about working together for almost as long. I am thrilled that we can finally realize this dream with the Zurich Jazz Orchestra."
