This recording by Baron Tymas is inspired by the warm-hearted city of Montréal, with some of the most superb jazz musicians associated with it today: vocalist Jeri Brown, trumpeter Charles Ellison, pianist Josh Rager, bassist Sage Reynolds and drummer Jim Doxas. The project represents part of Baron’s experience as a Fulbright Fellow at Concordia University in Montréal in late 2015. During that time, he wrote most of the music here, based on the sights, sounds and people of the city.
The songs reflect travel on the metro and bus lines, the beautiful weather of an unusually warm fall, the incredible food of the place, the harmonious and generally celebratory ambience of that multicultural city and the styles and musical personas of the players on the recording. A few of the tunes were written for and in other places--such as Durham, NC, where Baron lives—and the beautiful island of Virgin Gorda.
