| PledgeMusic Campaign For: Pianist Lewis Porter "For Coltrane and Curtis"
A first, with Lewis Porter,
Terri Lyne Carrington and John Patitucci together for a full album of acoustic jazz. Featuring Tia Fuller on two tracks.  |
 |
This
album will mark the first time that Carrington and Patitucci have a
recorded a full album of straight ahead acoustic jazz together. They are
old friends and have recorded tracks on a variety of albums, but nobody
has ever heard the amazing work they can do on a program of straight
ahead and standard tunes. Celebrated saxofonist Tia Fuller will join the recording session with her contributions on two tracks.
Lewis
Porter has performed on piano across the USA and Europe with Dave
Liebman, Joe Lovano, Gary Bartz, Wycliffe Gordon, Ravi Coltrane, Marc
Ribot, and many others. Joe Lovano called his last album “a wonderful
recording full of inspired trio excursions and beautiful solo
explorations…Bravo !!!” Now he will be recording with his friend Terri
Lyne Carrington, the amazing drummer who has won multiple Grammy awards,
and the equally celebrated bassist John Patitucci.
The
album will present original compositions by Porter including a dynamic
Suite for Coltrane, as well as standards such as "Bye Bye Blackbird,"
and the profound Curtis Mayfield tune "People Get Ready."
