“Boston-based reeds-and-brass double-threat Donahue didn’t commit himself to jazz until midlife, but since then he’s been on fire, releasing five meaty albums in the last three years alone. That includes “Bounce,” which not only puts Donahue’s post-bop, brains-and-brawn approach to saxes and fluegelhorn on display in quartet, quintet and sextet settings, but also features eight Donahue originals – some of the most engaging writing in modern jazz.”
