Personnel

'The release of World Café by Canadian flutist / composer Ron Korb sets a new level of excellence in 21st century Contemporary Instrumental fusion music.' – Music Web Express
'Though he's explored the music of many cultures, it all started with jazz, which is still a part of his playing today. We caught up with the Canadian musician, who has just released his 20th album, World Café, a jazz inflected mix of Latin and Caribbean flavored original compositions.' – All About Jazz by Rob Caldwell
'Ron's flute playing is smooth and melodic, he effortlessly drifts from a ballad to a passionate Cuban tempo with ease.' – Dave Milbourne editor, Toronto Jazz
"World Café is an equipoise of beautiful melodies, seductive rhythms, and memorable improvisations that is integrated with love and passion. The artistry of Ron Korb is so brilliant and the album is a perfect representation of intercultural communication at its best. I encourage all music listeners to check out this album." – Dr. José Valentino
