Title: Everything Old is New Again
Review: Something to appreciate about these gentlemen is that they are highly trained musicians and also experientially steeped in the history and literature of jazz. Their music is filled with allusions to the patriarchs and iconic performances of the genre. Importantly, they have built on this knowledge and, with profound technical skill, carried forward the development of America's classical music. You can witness this on the first track, Ellington's In a Sentimental Mood. I live in their home town and have followed them since they were doing gigs at local street fairs. This is how I would summarize my observation:They have heard it all.They have forgotten nothing.They have told us everything.
