About the Album

The stellar tenor saxophonist Noah Preminger is known for his burning, high-energy approach. For his newest recording, ��Ballads,�� he��s switching gears and exploring the great jazz tradition of making gorgeous melodies a vehicle for creative and mesmerizing playing. One of the album��s most unexpected gems is ��Carry Me Ohio,�� an enthralling tune by singer-songwriter Mark Kozelek, who performs as Sun Kil Moon. Preminger��s trance-like reinterpretation, distilled by his cohorts pianist Julian Shore, bassist Kim Cass and Allan Mednard, was inspired by playing the song repeatedly when his son was still in his mother��s womb.
