Jeff Pifher: Socrates’ Trial-Anthem

Tenor saxist, composer and authority on Greek history Jeff Pifher tells another story of the heyday of Hellenism with Colin Cook/g, Misha Bigos/p-key, Eric England/b, Corey Coverstone/dr, Ian Wurl/perc and guest Rene’ G. Boscio synth on this dramatic musical journey. Environs and moods range from a lovely solo piano on “Patience” and a lyrical duo between Pifher and piano on “For Us” to grandiose and dramatic motifs and climaxes on “Prudence” and “New Guards.” The skies open with Boscio’s assistance on the majestic “Anthem” with some upbeat moments with Pifher and Cook on “Homage.” The team rocks hard with impressive work by England and the metallic Cook during “For The Protection of Our Intentions” with bold drumming by Coverstone on “Equal Station.” Another great oracle from Athenian inspirations.
