Martin Wind is one of a few German jazz musicians that have been able to establish themselves and remain on the New York jazz scene. My Astorian Queen is a heartfelt thank you note to “this city and its welcoming artistic community in general, and some very special human beings in particular, that have guided and formed me over the last quarter of a century.” With this album he celebrates a 25 years in NYC, with his trusted quartet featuring Scott Robinson, Bill Mays and Matt Wilson.
