KSDS Jazz Live at the San Diego Saville Theater – August 2, 2016
Danny Green reaches new creative heights on this, his fourth recording as a leader (second for OA2 Records). Recorded over several days at New York’s famed Sear Sound with master producer Matt Pierson, Danny brings together his five year-old trio featuring bassist Justin Grinnell and drummer Julien Cantelm, along with a string quartet, to interpret eleven new highly personal compositions, each shaped by elements of his life’s narrative – feelings of warmth or nostalgia, the experience of a harried moment, or simply the convergence of a time and a place.
