Joel Frahm: We Used to Dance
ByBarron was one of Frahm's teachers at Rutgers University and the thirty-something saxophonist and 63-year-old pianist share a love for lyrical themes and cool melodies on this program. On Frahm's dramatic "Nad Noord, the scene shifts suite-like, taking the ensemble higher and higher. With a crisp, extended drum solo serving as its centerpiece, the song depicts a tango-like aura that causes emotions to swell. Elsewhere, the landscape appears dotted with lush greenery and flowing rivers that sing their praises to this saxophone star.
