Critically acclaimed Jazz French horn pioneer Tom Varner premiers new works for his forward-looking quintet as part of the 2008 Earshot Jazz Festival (http://www.earshot.org/). The quintet features some of Seattle's most dynamic jazz artists: Mark Taylor and Eric Barber on saxophones, Phil Sparks on bass, and Byron Vannoy on drums. A repeat Jazz Times and Down Beat readers poll winner, Varner is often regarded as "The French horn in contemporary jazz" - Berendt/Huesmann The Jazz Book.
