• Obed Calvaire: drums;

• Matt Penman: bass, contrabass;
• David Sánchez: tenor saxophone;
• Edward Simon: piano;
• Warren Wolf: vibraphone;
• Miguel Zenón: alto saxophone, flute.

I thought this was a really strong show – the band seemed far tighter than their appearances last spring (January 24 and March 29) when the building had it's grand opening run, but could be more a trick of memory than anything else. I know my general tendancy is to appreciate the new, which makes it hard to feel conclusive about this sort of judgement. Anyways, I had a good time, and I'm really looking forward to seeing them again on Sunday!

Back to the calendar!
