Jazz-Looking Chamber Music by Joshua Redman and Brooklyn Rider

Soundcheck | Jun 4, 2018

Hear unpredictable and graceful melodic lines traded by sax and strings, as tenor sax superstar Joshua Redman and string quartet Brooklyn Rider, along with all-star rhythm section of Scott Colley (bass) and Satoshi Takeishi (percussion) take over the studio. It's chamber music with swoops, dives, groove and bite in original and newly-arranged music with one foot in the jazz world where sharps are optional. Look for these pieces to appear on a forthcoming record due out in the new year via Nonesuch. -Caryn Havlik
