Both boundless improvisation and cool control are driving motors behind a quartet that has molded its common musical understanding over years on the road and in the studio. The more you trust, the more chances you can take and the deeper you can go with people,” says the leader, who feels that within this group’s chemistry he can go “beyond craft and gage into the art of music more in depth.”
