At the Bouquet Chorale – Marty Nau Group

Description

You may recognize just one of the three names, however, the other two may also hold your attention once you’ve heard this disc. It’s not that often that you hear three alto players on the same recording but these exceptional performances showcase each player performing in the great tradition of Charlie Parker.

“…there are spots in At the Bouquet Chorale where even the most ardent Woods fan will have a problem telling who is who (fortunately, the notes provide that information)…Regardless, both Nau and Lardear are first-class players in their own right who overflow with compelling ideas executed with masterful technique and harmonic sophistication.” -JazzTimes
