Selmer Paris endorsed artist Cory Barnfield enjoys a busy and successful career. His playing has been described as: “having a warm and expressive sound that speaks melodies easily with complete control of the full range of his instrument. There is a unique intimacy to his playing that is a delight to the listener. His fingers are precise, and rapidly allowing the music to flow unimpeded to the listener’s imagination no matter how difficult or easy. His articulation on saxophone is superb.” (Saxophone Journal) He frequently performs with the Kentucky Opera and the Louisville Symphony Orchestra, and his recordings can be heard on multiple labels. He is a champion of new music and has commissioned several pieces from composers. One such work is included on this album: Peter Felice’s “Shadows of Paris.”
