Fearsome

Grammy nominated and award winning jazz saxophonist, Ben Wendel is known for his harmonically sophisticated, motivic-based style of improvisation and broad compositional style touching upon post-bop, classical, and post-rock influences. "High Heart" is his fifth album. Riding a surge of interest in his playing over the last few years, Ben returns with an album that defines where he is, and his place in the world.
"High Heart" is a personal statement and reflection of Ben's own journey in a society of increasing complexity, oversaturation, and social imbalance. It’s an album that opens discussion and raises questions about how artists "create art that is personal and meaningful in an increasingly impersonal time".
