Gerry Mulligan and the Concert Jazz Band at the Village Vanguard (Redux)
When Gerry Mulligan and the Concert Jazz Band at the Village Vanguard were recorded in December 1960, it captured more than a performance - it preserved a moment of modern jazz refinement, West Coast cool merging with East Coast verve, and the evolution of big band music into an era defined by nuance and subtlety. This live album stands as one of the quintessential examples of mid-20th-century jazz innovation, marrying the structure of the big band tradition with the exploratory spirit of small-group improvisation, all within the intimate, smoky confines of New York City's legendary Village Vanguard. Now that this title is remastered in DSD256 it is a great addition to the Redux Series.
