Description
Fred Hersch is a ten–time GRAMMY Award nominee, a select member of jazz’s piano pantheon, and an influential creative force in contemporary music. Listening to his solo piano album Alone At The Vanguard(Palmetto, 2011), “I expected the virtuosity—Hersch, after all, is a living legend,” Jonathan Blitzer wrote in The New Yorker (3.6.2018). “What I didn’t expect, and what floored me, was how per­sonal and transporting it all felt...There’s a humbling vitality in these songs, and a palpable sense of wis­dom, too. It’s the sound of someone who’s been places.” Julian Lage is of the “highest category of improvising musicians, those who can enact thoughts and im­pulses as they receive them.” (The New Yorker) This gifted guitarist has evolved from collaborator (with giants such as Gary Burton, Jim Hall, Béla Fleck, and Charles Lloyd) to recording artist, band leader, and three–time GRAMMY Award nominee.
