Violin virtuoso Zach Brock's third session is, like its predecessors, Almost Never Was (CRC 1349) and Purple Sounds (CRC 1366), a tour the force of modern swing expression. Joined by New York A-listers Aaron Goldberg (piano), Matt Penman (bass) and Obed Calvaire (drums), Brock addresses a stylistically varied program, showcasing his command of a broad timeline of violin styles that he refracts into his own individualistic argot. The repertoire includes Jean-Luc Ponty (Sunday Walk), Charlie Parker (Segment), the American Songbook (the Billie Holiday vehicle Some Other Spring), and several substantial originals.
