Elias Haslanger meets Mike Sailors
Saxophonist Elias Haslanger and trumpeter Mike Sailors present us with their new jazz album
Bassist Mauricio Morales joins us to present an album of new jazz
LOS ANGELES: bassist Mauricio Morales’ fourth album presents seven distinctive compositions for sextet, with sophisticated shifts in mood and musical structure.
The music teems with intelligence as well as infectious melodic qualities, with deft, lushly harmonized lines for the front line of trombone, saxophone and guitar.
In a mode of decidedly modern jazz which also manages to be easy on the ear and heart, the music also benefits from bold, integrated playing and soloing by his young allies from both the east and west coasts--connections made when the Mexican Morales lived and studied in Boston before settling in his current adopted hometown of Los Angeles.
Come welcome Mauricio to our show!
