Official Site Description
Along with a select few other artists, saxophonist Warren Hill attests there's more to smooth jazz than what meets the ear. True, there are plenty of lighthearted and sweet-natured sounds to be heard, but Hill also connects with his rock and funky R&B roots, generating some sizzle with his alto andsoprano workouts. LA DOLCE VITA may be mellow music, but it's mellow with plenty of rhythmic variety--funk, Latin, Caribbean--and spunky instrumental flair.
Awards:
- Canadian Smooth Jazz Album of the year
- Title track Canadian Smooth Jazz Song of the year
- iTunes 6th best track of the year
- Fusion Flavors song of the year
- Breaks record for longest number of weeks on the R&B Chart (45)? as well as in the Top 10
