It's always a treat to hear a well-rehearsed “big” band, and having enjoyed the Tentet on their previous visit, I thought it would be a good idea to see them again tonight. The show was great fun, and while the program repeated two tunes from the 2017 visit, I was happy to hear both again: nothing wrong with emphasizing the really good stuff!

Jazz Times posted a brief promo article in advance of the January world premiere of Triple Helix at Carnegie Hall.
