Hidden Treasures

Hidden Treasures

On his second Reservoir CD, baritone saxophonist Gary Smulyan is in the company of bassist Christian McBride and drummer Billy Drummond. Together they explore 10 obscure tunes written by well known jazz musicians and are based on the chord changes of standards and jazz classics. Anchored by Smulyan's distinctive sound, the trio brings forth a fountain of textures and a flow of ideas which bear the impact of a larger ensemble, but carrying a refreshing small group vitality and spontaneity.
