DANILO PÉREZ, BRIAN BLADE & JOHN PATITUCCI

Brian Blade, whom Joshua Redman called “the drummer of the future,” John Patitucci, considered one of the most gifted bassists of his generation, and Danilo Pérez, renowned for his sharp improvisational sensibility keyed into Latin-American, jazz and classical traditions, are the key players in Wayne Shorter’s redoubtable quartet. Here, they take us on a rare magic carpet ride of pure jazz pleasure as a trio. Très cool.
