The Island Jazz quartet reworks traditional melodies with modern harmonies. And twists irresistible rhythms into surprising contemporary forms. You?ll even encounter a Duke Ellington classic ? but not as you know it. And get ready to be blown away by virtuosic improvising from some of the most inventive players on the planet. These are the musical treasures that await you on Island Jazz. Each song tells a story: a spurned king, a flock of jealous birds, the crimes of colonial rule, a woman?s secret, or the yearning for a lost, golden childhood.
