The Danny Green Trio: Converging Brazilian and Jazz Music
August 7, 2015 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$12 – $15
Emulating various types of Brazilian music using beguiling, brisk melodies and a vast array of intricate rhythms, The Danny Green Trio excellently brings together the sounds and traditions of Brazilian and jazz music. Called “a musical mind of rare sensitivity and rigor,” pianist Green is quickly scaling the ranks of new jazz talent. This virtuoso group is currently on tour promoting their acclaimed album After the Calm.
Featuring:
Danny Green – piano
Justin Grinnell – bass
Julien Cantelm – drums
“While Green, Grinnell and Cantelm all have memorable moments on After the Calm, it’s as a unit that they most impress. Their sensitivity to one another enables them to negotiate intricate passages with ease and to neatly execute pinpoint shifts in direction and dynamics. That rapport is a key to their ability to inject freshness into a jazz piano trio tradition that dates back more than 80 years.” – George Varga, San Diego Union Tribune
