Colette Michaan‘s new album, Earth Rebirth is an alluring collection of songs, played with sensitivity and grace. The musical notes float out, surrounding the listener in clouds of ever-changing color. It’s a thoroughly satisfying jazz experience. Michaan’s virtuoso playing of both flute and bamboo flute sets a level of musicianship that is matched by everyone involved.

The players are Colette Michaan (flute), Leo Genovese (keyboards), John Benitez (bass), Luisito Quintero (percussion), and Yusnier Sanchez Bustamante (percussion).

Earth Rebirth. It can be a description, or perhaps a plea. With Colette Michaan’s radiant release it’s a gentle command. And the world is a better place for it.
