In our previous announcement
of the new Criss Cross Jazz releases for February 2016,
which will be available around February 26, we included an
incorrect cover for the Criss Cross 1385 - Conrad Herwig -
Igor Butman Reflections album. Here is the corrected
version. All details, including sound samples, can be found on the
website:CRISS 1385 CD CONRAD HERWIG - IGOR BUTMAN SEXTET - REFLECTIONS - On
Reflections, a co-led sextet recital
comprising two charts from Russian tenor
saxophonist-bandleader Igor Butman and six from
trombonist Conrad Herwig.For the tenth CD that Herwig has either led or co-led for Criss Cross since 1997, he recruits trumpeter (and Criss Cross veteran) Alex Sipiagin to round out the front line, and a killer rhythm section comprising pianist David Kikoski, bassist Kenny Davis and drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts. Well-known as the leader and guiding intelligence of the Moscow State Jazz Orchestra, Butman, in a rare sideman appearance with a combo of New York A-listers, brings his A-game, improvising with heat and logic that his partners match throughout. https://www.crisscrossjazz.com/album/1385.html |
