I had an amazing concert last wednesday night in Brooklyn at a concert series called Brooklyn Jazz Wide Open / Littlefield. I played with the Ron Horton/ Tim Horner 10tet. What a band featuring Marc Mommaas, Scott Robinson, John O’Gallagher, Nate Ecklund, Ron Horton, Alan Ferber, and a rhythm section of Frank Kimbrough, myself, Mark Sherman on vibes, Martin Wind, and Tim Horner. The music is mostly arranged by Ron Horton in tribute to the music of Andrew Hill legendary jazz pianist/composer. This band is currently looking for a home at one of the local New York jazz clubs, and certainly deserves one. Ron Horton has cleverly arranged the music and the players are really incredible. I hope the band will soon record. A project worth checking out.
