Guido Basso and Phil Dwyer
Guido has been playing his tart, hot licks on trumpet since the ‘60s in groups of every description – from big bands like The Boss Brass, to Afro-Latin groups and jazz duos. An accomplished arranger, composer and conductor, he has also played on recordings by Anne Murray, Rob McConnell and Holy Cole. Guido was a friend and colleague of cyn D's father, jazz violinist, Bill Richards. Phil is a tenor, alto and soprano sax player as well as clarinet, flute and piano. He has numerous jazz albums both as a single and group artist. Constant live gigs and festivals as well as being a music professor at York University keeps Phil very busy... but he still doesn't own a car!
They are posing for this photo during a session that brought these two musical guru’s under our roof. What an honour. A beautiful pair of kind human beings.
