Kenny G – New Standards

popmag000792-newstandards

“New Standards”, the 15th studio album by saxophonist Kenny G, was released today. After a five-year hiatus from recording, the 65-year-old smooth jazz maestro is back with his latest opus, inspired by the jazz ballads of the 50s and 60s. “New Standards” is a beautiful collection of eleven original songs composed by Kenny G together with Sam Hirsh, Randy Waldman, and Walter Afanasieff. It’s certainly no coincidence that Kenny G has released these slow ballads just in time for the festive season. “Only You”, “Rendezvous”, and “Waltz In Blue” are three of the most noteworthy songs on the album.
