Description
Trumpeter/composer Gabriel Garrick pays tribute to the great legacy that was passed on by his late father, the pianist Michael Garrick, who was an influential figure on the British jazz scene from the 1960s until his death in 2011.
The Standards Septet was created with the idea of "playing tunes that I like with some guys whom I love playing with" says Gabriel. The programme includes classic jazz standards such as the title track, "Song For My Father", "In a Mellotone", "Mood Indigo", "Cherokee" and "Out of Nowhere" alongside some original swingers composed by Gabriel.
"This is music of genuine vigour, bustling creativity and broad-minded provenance. It's also brilliantly executed and very satisfying indeed. Would father have approved? For sure." - Peter Vacher (from the liner notes).
Personnel: Gabriel Garrick (trumpet, flugelhorn), Martin Hathaway (alto saxophone, clarinet), Jon Stokes (trombone), Martin Kolarides (guitar), Peter James (piano), Joe Pettitt (bass), Patrick Davey (drums)
