We take a ride through the many directions of jazz, from cool-toned swing and hard bop to modern improvisation, spiritual jazz, and the outer edges of the music.
The first hour brings lyrical piano, restless rhythms, and a healthy dose of Monk's angular wit. Then the music digs deeper, with gospel roots, searching saxophones, and the enduring influence of John Coltrane. A spiritual center gives way to adventurous new sounds, where melody, texture, and rhythm take some unexpected turns.
Old masters, new voices, familiar compositions heard in unfamiliar ways, and a few surprises before we head home. More than two hours of jazz that respects its history without standing still.
