  • Description

    'Far Far Away' is a sonic powerhouse, leveraging every aspect of this magnificent, all-star quintet. Kurt Rosenwinkel's searing, innovative playing is on full display, Jim Snidero demonstrates a broadsword of a sound, and the rhythm section of Orrin Evans, Peter Washington and Joe Farnsworth groove and interact at the highest levels of artistry.

    Building on the 5-star success (Downbeat Magazine) of 'Live at The Deer Head Inn', which included Evans, Washington and Farnsworth, Snidero adds jet fuel to the fire with the addition of Rosenwinkel's highly influential guitar style. The result is an inspired performance bursting at the seams with musicality and drive.

    Jim Snidero's six originals create the perfect mix of current trends and tradition. Swing, Latin, and Euro grooves are all represented, yet the album is surprisingly cohesive, flowing from one tune to the next. The classics "It Might as Well be Spring" and McCoy Tyner's deeply relevant "Search for Peace" round out this amazing recording.

    Jim Snidero: alto saxophone
    Kurt Rosenwinkel: guitar
    Orrin Evans: piano
    Peter Washington: bass
    Joe Farnsworth: drums
