USA: STRANAHAN - ZALESKI - ROSATO-Live at the Jazz Standard (Capri Records 2019)


Live at the Jazz StandardColin Stranahan, Glenn Zaleski and Rick Rosato first came together back in 2010 to record as a young, leaderless trio 'Anticipation'. For most of them, this was their first recording, and following its success, 'Limitless' came three years later. These youthful and energetic albums developed an international fan base for the trio, but their skyrocketing careers as sidemen prevented them from reconvening until now, eight years after their debut. Captured live at New York City's Jazz Standard, one of the world's leading jazz clubs, the trio revisits music from their earlier CDs, as well as new compositions. Their palpable natural chemistry, coupled now with a new level of maturity and experience, is captured here on 'Live at Jazz Standard', a record that solidifies their place as one of the great jazz trios.
