Reviews:
"I was very excited when I was asked to review this resource, as Tim Garland is one of the biggest names on the London jazz scene ...... I was not disappointed. The pick of the pieces for me was Rosa Ballerina. This has very simple parts and lovely harmonies. It is a good flute feature and contains some unusual chords over which to improvise "
(Ian Wilson, SMA Bulletin)
