Dynamic, intense pop music set to powerful & personal lyrics.
When Dean McNeill isn't working as the head of the music department at the University of Saskatchewan, performing with the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra or leading Saskatoon's Metro Jazz Ensemble - he finds the time to hone his skills as a trumpet player and composer...and be a dad to a toddler. This year Dean released a CD where he performed with jazz pianist Jon Ballantyne and classical pianist Bonnie Nicholson. In this concert we'll hear Dean playing both trumpet and flugelhorn on some of his jazz favourites as well as an original composition. He's joined by guitarist Jack Semple, Carlo Petrovitch on bass and drummer Arlan Kopp.
