The past few days, I've been enjoying the sets that NPR recorded at the
2011 Monterey Jazz Festival. You can do the same by going to
www.npr.org/.montereyjazz. There, you will find music from saxophonist
Donny McCaslin and his "Electric" group, the Latin jazz of the
John Santos Sextet, Cuban singer/songwriter
Juan-Carlos Formell & Johnny's Dream Club, trumpeter
Sarah Wilson & Quintet featuring the electric violin work (in more ways than than just plugging in) of
Charles Burnham and drummer
Matt Wilson, and the
Bill Carrothers Trio. That's the pianist in the picture above and his live set features long-time associates
Drew Gress (bass) and
Bill Stewart (drums.) So, if you couldn't make the trek to the Festival, these highlights will brighten your days and nights.
It's always worth clicking on
www.npr.org/ablogsupreme to find out what Patrick Jarenwattananon and his associates have posted for jazz and music fans.
