“My father is a
great inspiration for why I perform. It’s a wonderful feeling and people
remember this. He is the only and true influence for why I do what I do.”– Tito Puente, Jr.

Linda Witsell continues her traditions of communing and jamming on straight-ahead
jazz and contemporary styles. Linda is something of an inconspicuous insurgent
in the regional jazz kingdom. Her adeptness on flute is sweet and particularly
outspoken. She’s got big, healthy, highly individual ideas on flute, and about
how to push jazz beyond its own boundaries.
