Dick De Graaf - Sailing

Review by Jordi Sarola

Dick De Graaf's album Sailing is a magnificent collection of jazz music that will take the listener on a journey across the seas. The album features ten tracks that showcase De Graaf's exceptional saxophone skills and his ability to create beautiful melodies.

The album opens with the title track "Sailing," a soothing and relaxing tune that sets the mood for the rest of the album. The second track, "Seagull," is an upbeat and playful tune that will make the listener tap their feet and nod their head.

De Graaf's musicianship shines through on every track, but it is especially evident on "The Ocean," a hauntingly beautiful tune that features De Graaf's saxophone soaring above a bed of strings. The album also features a cover of Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely," which De Graaf infuses with his own unique style.
