Trombonist Nick Finzer brings together Lucas Pino/ts-bcl, Alex Wintz/g, Glenn Zaleski/p, Dave Baron/b and Jimmy MacBride/dr for rich interpretations of his compositions. The tunes range from dark tones as on the post bop “A Sorcerer” that has a rich cantor underneath Finzer’s warm horn and Pino’s modern tenor” to the mor pastoral “The Weatherman” with MacBride brushing the delicate sands. Zaleski’s piano is delicate on the dancing “A Duke” and relaxed on “Intro To…” and “You’ll Never Know The Alternative”(which sounds a bit like “It Never Entered My Mind”). Finzer’s horn blends well when Pino plays the bass clarinet on the laconic “Venus” and the two get dramatic during the passionate “The Guru”. Warm colors on a tight canvas.
