The Visit brings together a stellar and eclectic
collection of the Bay area's finest jazzers for far-ranging aural expeditions -
from Oregon-like world fusion jazz with reed player Paul McCandless to taut
cosmopolitan funk with violinist Darol Anger and tabla master Zakir Hussain.
Jazz pianist Jack Perla's genius is composition. With broad swaths of color
detailed by many fine strokes, he crafts pieces of glittering beauty, melodies
that sneak into a listener's consciousness and deeply insinuate themselves with
each iteration or variation. |
