Love Letters to the Other Side, is the highly anticipated second album (released in April 2022) by Bogdan Gumenyuk , the gifted Ukrainian saxophonist, originally from Kyiv, but now residing in Montreal. Each of the ten compositions on the album was written with certain musicians in mind. Love Letters to the Other Side features many well-known Canadian instrumentalists who contribute their enormous talents to the realization of the album. Each of the ten tracks offers the listener, a different musical experience. From the sweet and soulful On a Little Blue Street of the Past, to the hauntingly mellifluous gem, Love Letters to the Other Side, the album provides the listener with a total musical experience.
