Description
Winard Harper is one of the hardest working drummers in jazz today, not only leading his very exciting and hard-swinging sextet, but also continuing as an in-demand sideman with the likes of Joe Lovano, Frank Wess, Jimmy Heath and the late Betty Carter. His new Jazz Legacy CD, Coexist, goes further than any of his previous releases to highlight his talent as drummer, composer and bandleader.
Inspired by illustrious predecessors Max Roach and Art Blakey, Harper's vibrant ensemble performs an enthralling programme of original jazz compositions and standards often spiced with hand percussion, and notably, the leaders Balaphone.
Personnel: Winard Harper (drums, Percussion, balaphone), Bruce Harris (trumpet, flugelhorn), Jovan Alexandre (tenor saxophone), Michael Dease (trombone), Roy Assaf (piano), Stephen Porter (bass), Abdou Mboup (percussion, bongos, talking drums), Alioune Faye (percussion, djembe), Jean Marie (percussion) with special guests: Frank Wess, Mark Gross, Sharel Cassity, Tadataka Unno, John Lee.
