Details

[Edit]

Saxophone Summit was started by three excellent saxophonists who had integrated John Coltrane’s influence into their own sound: Michael Brecker, Dave Liebman, and Joe Lovano. In 2004, the group — which included the rhythm section of pianist Phil Markowitz, bassist Cecil McBee, and drummer Billy Hart — released Gathering of the Spirits. Brecker sadly passed away in 2007, but the group decided to keep the project going and Saxophone Summit’s second album, 2008’s Seraphic Light, which is dedicated to Brecker, features the same personnel, but with Ravi Coltrane filling in for the late saxophonist. (Trumpeter Randy Brecker, Michael’s brother, sits in on two tracks, and wrote the buoyant “Message to Mike.”) Each band member contributes a single composition to the album. Markowitz’s “Transitions” and Ravi Coltrane’s “The Thirteenth Floor” don’t shy away from either complexity or groove, and Hart’s “Reneda,” a piece by turns mysterious and mellow, also stands out, but all of the originals hold their own. Lovano’s autochrome (double soprano sax) solo on the title cut is startling.
