Here is mainstream jazz at its best. Two celebrated Toronto-based musicians, saxophonist Mike Murley and pianist Mark Eisenman, perform selections from their JUNO-nominated album Recent History. Two rhythm players of equal renown, bassist Neil Swainson and drummer Terry Clarke, complete the quartet. The album includes seven Murley/Eisenman compositions and four classic tracks. These musicians bring their vast experience together to create fresh music while still respecting the core musical concepts of jazz: swing, melody, interaction and being in the moment.
