Floros Floridis, Tyshawn Sorey & Phil Haynes’ Daydream Trio

Click the play button to listen

This episode is a truly mixed bag featuring drummer-led piano trios, the saxophone playing of a true jazz legend in Greece, live recordings from New York, and the usual music from faraway lands. Drummer Tyshawn Sorey has been hailed as one of the most important creators of our time, and his recent The Susceptible Now continues a string of albums of deconstructed and altered music. Fellow drummer Phil Haynes, part of the rarely-recorded and rarely-seen Daydream Trio, delves into the music of Ellington and Strayhorn. Perhaps Duke and Strays Live with pianist Steve Rudolph and bassist Drew Gress is not perhaps as "radical" as the Sorey session, but Haynes and friends take their own form of liberties with very familiar tunes, and the result in both cases, is highly original and brilliant improvisation. Saxophonist Floros Floridis holds the distinction of creating the first modern jazz album produced in Greece back in 1979 with pianist Sikis Papadimitriou. The new Temporal Driftness provides an opportunity to hear this important European player in full-blown free jazz mode, playing with bassist Matthias Bauer & drummerJoe Hertenstein. Saxophonist and presenter Stephen Gauci has been a champion of free jazz in NYC through his creation of various improv series at different locations, including Scholes Street Studios where he records many of the artists he features. You'll hear pair of those, plus the Midi 4 Quartet from Poland, saxophonist Rick Countryman from Manila, and Amsterdam trumpeter Dennis Sekretarev. Lots more interesting stuff as well.
