Quartet

Album Notes & Community Reviews

Reuniting the famously lyrical trumpeter with arguably his most sympathetic and structurally important piano accompanist, this session highlights a slightly more muscular approach to the West Coast sound. The rhythm section provides a remarkably buoyant, hard-swinging foundation that forces the brassman into punchier, highly focused improvisational flights. The tightly arranged tracks serve as a brilliant testament to the enduring, deeply communicative musical partnership between the two co-leaders.
