A true all–star quartet arrives at Jazz Standard this week, recording both nights for a future live album release.

This formidable piano trio returns to our stage tonight to celebrate the release of a new CD, Live at Jazz Standard, comprised of recordings made during their previous (and very well–received) engagement.

GRAMMY Award-winning pianist Danilo Pérez blends his Panamanian roots with elements of jazz, European impressionism, African rhythms, and other traditions from around the world. Pérez conceived his Global Messengers project as nothing less than “a tool to redirect humanity in a positive direction.”

Alongside his gifted colleagues, bassist Linda May Han Oh and drummer Henry Cole, Fabian Almazan unveils music of both extraordinary complexity and transparent beauty on his new album This Land Abounds With Life (Biophilia Records).

Tonight, this great group will reunite with the Sirius Quartet (“Versatility and flair with lively improvisations” — NY Times) to present music from Reid’s exquisite Season Two Newvelle album Terrestrial Dance.
