2015.05.25 Brandon Ross on Keith Jarrett's American Quartet 2 of 2
Deep Focus - A podcast by Small Media Large - Sundays
A band cannot be a great band if it doesn't have its own distinctive sound. The sonorities of the instruments and the writing are part of it but it's really the character of the players and how they blend, how they respond to one another. Ellington had it, of course; Mingus had it; Ornette always had it, no matter how far flung the instrumentation but... What is it exactly?! It's ineffable, yes, but Brandon Ross spreads light in this edition of Mitch Goldman's Deep Focus from 2015 on Keith Jarrett's American Quartet.#WKCR #DeepFocus #MitchGoldman #BrandonRoss #KeithJarrett #KeithJarrettAmericanQuartet#JazzRadio #JazzInterview #jazzpodcast Photo credit: Enid Farber
