Multi-instrumentalist and composer/arranger Phil Dwyer burst on the jazz scene in Canada and internationally in his late teens and by his early 20s was, to quote Globe & Mail journalist Mark Miller, 'startling jazz audiences with his unprecedented command of both tenor saxophone and piano' and with his 'extraordinarily authoritative playing ... set the country on it's ear'.Originally from Canada's West Coast, Dwyer had sought out the action and excitement of New York City when he was just 17, moving there in 1983 to study with Steve Grossman and David Liebman and while there had the opportunity to rub shoulders with some of the true jazz legends who were still on the scene at that time.
