BIMHUIS TV Present: JOEL ROSS PARABLES

American rising star presents his new album on Blue Note with his seven-piece band.
Marquis Hill trumpet, Godwin Louis alto saxophone, Maria Grand tenor saxophone, Joel Ross vibraphone, Jeremy Corren piano, Rick Rosato bass, Kayvon Gordon drums
Joe Ross has established himself in the American jazz top. He was voted best vibraphone player of the year in the Downbeat Critics Poll, above his mentor Stefan Harris. Shortly before that, he released his third album on Blue Note, The Parable of the Poet. An ambitious project, with richly orchestrated jazz, remarkable timbres, and free rhythms packed in a seven-part suite. Now he will present music from the album live, with a seven-piece ensemble including trumpeter Marquis Hill, who performed at our venue last year.
Joes Ross made name at a young age in the Chicago jazz scene, and he currently lives in Brooklyn, New York. In recent years he played with an impressive number of bands. With big names such as Joshua Redman and Wynton Marsalis, but also with promising artists such as Marquis Hill and Makaya McCraven. On his own albums he reveals his qualities as a sophisticated composer and band leader, whether he deals with atmospheric sounds, or grooves inspired by dance and hip-hop.

As a grouchy old phogey & vibes player, I usually turn off younger bands after mentally ticking off their influences and noting that the originals were better. This was different. The influences were there but not slavishly imitated, the compositions, ensemble playing and solos all had the voices of the players/ composer behind them, just as a I heard from those who spoke to me fifty plus years ago! I'm glad to hear that the tradition survives, not as a museum piece but as something alive with things to say. This greatly pleased me and it also pleases me to say that I will now buy and listen to this album. Thank you Mr. Ross and your musical accomplices: you made an old man happy!

Playing in the background, Godwin Louis' alto solo stopped me dead. Fabulous - his sound!

[@eoinohalloranmusic8277]

Absolutely beautiful. The Alto solo at around 40 min has me gobsmacked, insane.
