Trombonist and composer Nick Finzer brings together a textured team of Lucas Pino/ts-bcl, Alex Wintz/g, Glenn Zaleski/p, Dave Baron/b and Jimmy MacBride/dr for a three part suite filled with rich harmonies and thoughtful solos. The horns are fluffy for “Visions or Mirage” and warm around Baron’s solo on “Aspirations and Convictions”. Zalexki is l ith on the post bopping “To Dream A Bigger Dream” with Pino’s tenor sax, while Wintz solos over the crisp groove on ”I Thought I Took The Road Less Travelled”. Finzer has fun with the plunger on “But I Did What They Said” and is elliptical on the intro to the galloping “Follow Your Heart”. Rich ideas and colors that blend well.Nick Finzer: Dreams Visions Illusions
