Description: | What happens when an impressive post-bop stalwart on the cutting edge of the NY jazz scene takes time to lean into technical challenges, stretch creatively, & find original solutions to musical problems that both mirror & mess with the conventions of classical music as seen through a prism of Barry Harris-eque phrasing' The result is Preludes. Rich classical textures that never compromises swing. - Jeb Patton - Preludes - Springing forth from the competing impulses that were the isolation of the 2020 COVID lockdowns and the creative burst that many individuals experienced, Patton, a pianist whose personal humility, deftness of touch, and deep understanding of the jazz tradition has earned him frequent company in the bands of Jimmy Heath and Charles McPherson, presents here a fine recording of former miniatures that may have begun life as pianistic exercises aimed at technical self-improvement, but quickly transformed into fulsome and satisfying artistic ensemble creations. - Classical and jazz, the so-called modern and the antiquated, & the progressive and traditional coexist beautifully in the hands of pianist Jeb Patton.Recorded at Samurai Hotel Recording Studio, Astoria, NY on November 1, 2021. |
