Review: Asian-American trombonist Lin releases his first album, which pays homage to his cultural and musical upbringing. He explores different paths towards creating a variety of musical arrangements and compositions based on traditional songs & music from Taiwan, plus one original & one cover. On tracks 5 & 6, the Lintet is joined by several guests.
