Synopsis

Album Description
A collaborative tribute with all-star Boston jazz musicians. Carol pays homage to Duke Ellington, one of her most profound musical influences. Hear an unusual variety of vocal interpretations and arrangements that sound fresh while honoring the music's historical roots. Carol and her phenomenal musicians (Bob Winter-piano, John Lockwood-bass, Jim Gwin-drums, Jon Wheatley-guitar and co-arranger, Herb Pomeroy-trumpet and Mike Monaghan-tenor and soprano saxophones, clarinet) explore an exciting range of improvisation, instrumentation, moods, styles, textures, and timbres.
