Synopsis

Album Description
"Berkman is a scintillating composer and improviser."
-- Entertainment Weekly Since moving to New York in 1985, David Berkman has been an important part of the jazz community--an award-winning composer & bandleader who has performed and taught around the US and Europe. He has played in countless bands, including those of Cecil McBee, Tom Harrell, and the Vanguard Orchestra. He has worked with Sonny Stitt, Brian Blade, Joe Lovano, Dave Douglas, Ray Drummond, and more. Jazz clubs are special places--each one has its own personality, colored by the people that go there and the music that has been played there. Smoke is filled with the ghosts of all the great musicians who have played there, a sort of "who's who" of the jazz world (including David Berkman himself). So, the band and the club collaborated to make this album, recording five sets over the course of two nights.
