Canadian composer and guitarist Avi Granite celebrates his musical roots by spotlighting some of Canada's finest musicians in solo performance. Based in New York City, Granite returned to his native Toronto in the fall of 2021 to record Avi Granite's In Good Hands.

Granite is a seasoned improviser, but in this context we focus on his work as a composer. With the support of the Canada Council for the Arts, Granite recruited the talents of several of his musical mentors and friends.
