Hi Everyone!!!
Well I am three weeks into making the record and things are moving along quite well.

CD Review on CONTEMPORARYJAZZ.COM
Review by: Jeff Charney
CD Title: You and I
Record Label: Figoro Music (Australia)

Now if you like Kenny G (which I do) that is what you are going to get on You And I. Lots of soft, pretty, in fact even gorgeous ballads that would fit perfectly on Smooth Jazz radio. I certainly was enjoying this record.
Bonus goes to IGOR for writing every song on the CD. The man has pop/jazz talent and I can see why he is very popular in his country.

CD Review on JAZZREVIEW.COM
Reviewed by: Norm Breest
CD Title: You and I
Record Label: Figoro Music (Australia)

For a man who has travelled almost around the world, the saxophonist simply know as IGOR is one of the brightest smooth jazz talents around. His latest release called "You and I" could make IGOR one of the best up and coming artists in the United States.

IGOR could be the next instrumentalist to have a worldwide following that could eclipse many of the other instrumental performers, such as John Tesh or Yanni. You and I has the potential and IGOR has the talent.
