Illuminations also features a string quartet on Sarah's arrangement of the Josefine Cronholm composition, "Wild Garden".
Sarah arranged much of the material and also surrounded herself with a large ensemble of top-flight musicians, including Stu Harrison and Jamie Reynolds on piano, Harley Card on electric and acoustic guitar, Mark McIntyre on bass, David MacDougall on drums, Mike Murley on tenor saxophone, Alison Young on alto saxophone, Rebecca Hennessy on trumpet and fluegelhorn, and Joel Green on trombone. Described as "diverse and sophisticated" (Justin Litun, IAJE Canada Newsletter), "powerful, stirring and lush" (Peter Merrett, PBS 106-7FM, Melbourne) and "swingin' stuff" (Colin Smith, CKLN 88.1FM, Toronto) amongst reviewers and critics, the self-produced recording has generated considerable attention for it's originality and musicianship. Sarah Jerrom's critically acclaimed debut album, Illuminations, encompasses fresh original compositions, jazz-inspired arrangements of contemporary songs and traditional jazz standards.
