Freddy Greene-Solo Dancer (Disjazzio Records 2012)

This project takes a step back into the glory days of music while maintaining a strong connection to today's traditional jazz lovers. Influences such as John Coltrane, Sidney Bachet and Grover Washington ring out as you listen to this project.
The music of Freddy Greene is magical. With the freedom to create from feelings and passion instead of requirement gives this music a more abstract yet sincere tone. Sweet, mellow, smooth, aggressive, demanding, raspy are all adequate descriptions of Freddy Greene's music. The lead sounds of the flute on Monday, the tenor sax on Wednesday or the soprano on Friday directly connecte the feelings the day brings to this artist. We invite you to take a musical journey with Freddy as he makes you feel exactly what he felt while creating this project. As you listen to the songs we invite you to make notes of your feelings as you travel from one place to another with Freddy Greene, the "Street Genie"
