USA : Chuck Israels Jazz Orchestra-Concerto Peligroso (Dot Time Records 2018)
Chuck Israels has done it again! This recording features Chuck’s most exquisite composing and arranging to date! Laid out open and bare with intricate harmonies and rhythms, his Nonet ensemble presents these compositions with virtuoso musicianship, soulful solos while creating incredible new environs. With a nod to the past, Chuck is willing to share his wisdom looking toward the future. This is a need to hear album.
