The

find
a
home
along

Solid

"Gabriel
Mark
Hasselbach
is
a
talented
multi-instrumentalist
whose
music
receives
prominent
airplay
on
the
Jazz
Cafe
channel
here
at
Max
Trax.
Maui
Rain
has
a
smooth
groove
that
fits
in
perfectly
with
our
sound.
This
bright,
sunny
song
is
only
the
first
of
what
I
hope
to
be
several
single
releases
from "Gabriel's
Horns" --
we
want
more!"

“…… a
recording
that
should
be
in

music
library
in
the
country….
an
excellent
recording
which
should
propel
Hasselbach
to
a
prominent position
in
Canadian
music
and
beyond.
Gabriel
Mark
Hasselbach
is
easily
Canada's
best
kept

a

"Hasselbach's
music
is
a
fresh
new
sound
in
the
world
of
Smooth
Jazz
and
I
am
pleased
to
inform
you
that
we
have
added
three
tracks
from
his
latest
works
to
our
main
rotation
on
the

"A
welcome
import
on
the
Maui
and
Hawaiian
jazz
scene!
Great
production,
terrific
tunes,
and
it
sounds
hot
on
my
jazz
show!"

“This
multi-talented
musician
tackles
brass
duties
with
taste;
he
moves
smoothly
through flugelhorn,
flute,
trumpet,
and
alto
flute
instrumentation.
His
grasp
of
electronic
wind
instruments
is
also
noteworthy…”
Mark
D’Antonio,
Maui
Time
Review
“… jazz
works best
when an
artist combines
different elements
of the
jazz
umbrella and
Hasselbach
does
this
on ‘Live
On
Maui’.
Hasselbach’s
own
Salsa
Picosa
sounds
like
a
smooth
jazz
hit
single
if
there
ever was
one. ‘Live
On
Maui’ is
an inventive,
sophisticated
live album
that’s
bound to
please anyone
remotely
interested
in any
genre of
Jazz.”
John
Beaudin QMFM Radio
“Did
Gabriel Mark
Hasselbach's
parents
have a
premonition
by
naming
him
Gabriel ? We
earthlings
have
been so
blessed with the
versatile,
cool,
funky and
even celestial
sounds produced
by this
US born,
Vancouver artist
that it
makes me
wonder if
the
arch
angel himself
has personally
sprinkled Hasselbach
with
a
little extra
talent and
ability.”
