American trumpeter\/composer\/bandleader Brian Lynch, a Grammy award winning artist, has brought a new burning charisma to the Latin jazz genre, raising consciousness through a colorful consolidation of diverse musical cultures. His double-disc big band album, The Omni-American Book Club<\/em><\/strong>, was inspired by literature and features noteworthy guests such as drummer Dafnis Prieto, flutist Orlando \u2018Maraca\u2019 Valle, violinist Regina Carter, and saxophonists David Liebman, Jim Snidero, and Donald Harrison. The latter completely kills on the smoothly funkified, R&B-flavored \u201cThe Struggle Is In Your Name<\/em><\/strong>\u201d, where he exchanges heated phrases with the bandleader.
