专辑简介

Mark Whitecage专辑介绍：by Scott YanowThis CD's title refers to the fact that the set utilizes a quintet comprised of the Joseph Scianni Trio (pianist Scianni, bassist Dominic Duval and drummer Jay Rosen) plus the Mark Whitecage 4tet (Whitecage on alto and soprano, cellist Tomas Ulrich, Duval and Rosen). The music mostly consists of fairly free and intense improvising with some quieter moments included for variety. The colorful songtitles include "Office People," "Dangerous Neighborhood," "Moonlight and Martinis" and "Broadway Two Step." This music will take several listens to fully appreciate, but due to the high musicianship and logical (if very advanced) soloing, it is worth the effort.
