Pérez Patitucci Blade - Children of the light
_Moonlight in Congo Square
on stage_
ITALY · SALA PARADISO · SAN LAZZARO DI SAVENA - BOLOGNA · APRIL 2018
That's one of the greatest working bands in jazz, the Wayne Shorter Quartet. The group's been playing together for 15 years. Last year, 82-year-old Wayne Shorter took a break, and the other three quarters of the group toured as a trio called Children of the Light.
Danilo Pérez (piano), John Patitucci (bass) and Brian Blade (drums) as a trio, and the album likewise emphasises the immense jazz experience and the effortless hipness with which they deploy it all. It’s very classy contemporary jazz from a trio who have learned to listen to each other in the most exacting context, though their relish for tricksy musical puzzles still occasionally gets in the way.
DANILO PÉREZ - PIANO
JOHN PATITUCCI - DOUBLE BASS
BRIAN BLADE - DRUM
