  1. Thank you. Mary H plays free jazz yet is still quite melodic and enjoyable.

  4. Thanks for the post, Ricardo. Looking forward to others from Saalfelden.

    Have enjoyed Mary's playing a lot recently. Looking forward to seeing her and the quintet play in Columbus, OH this December.

    Thanks again for sharing.

  5. 'm happy to see that Jon Irabagon is in the line-up. One to watch out for. I saw him this spring with Mostly Other People Do The Killing. And he'll be back in October! Wowee!
