All One

All One is the inspired, multilayered and guest-starring new album from the master saxophonist and composer Ben Wendel - with every song featuring a different special guest forming a truly all-star lineup across the album. Layers of woodwind lay the foundation for very real and honest collaborations with some of the biggest stars in the global scene Bill Frisell, C cile McLorin Salvant, Terrence Blanchard, Jos James, Elena Pinderhughes and Tigran Hamasyan. In recent years, the Canadian-born, LA-raised musician has taken unique ownership of a place in the saxophone world for his strong and focussed tone, use of electronics and forward-thinking boldness that has created a large and dedicated following. Known as the 'Brecker' of his generation, he is a musician adept as much in Jazz as in Pop with a language and sound that are uniquely his. All One showcases the fullness of Ben Wendel's talent as you've never seen it before - as an arranger, composer, performer and collaborator - and with his celebrity associations that have enabled him to pull together a stellar guest line-up. With a message of togetherness, friendship and unity, All One will confirm Ben Wendel's stature as an of the most innovative and prolific musicians of his generation.
