Mosaic: The Music of Gregg Hill

Origin 82912



A stone cold master class...so heart felt and spirited it just transcends all boundaries. Killer stuff.
Midwest Record

Recently honored with induction into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences through his decades-long status as a prolific bassist and preeminent jazz educator, Rodney Whitaker also continues his role as a consummate interpreter of original music, notably through this fruitful association with composer Gregg Hill. Mosaic is the fourth collaboration between the two, and with his vibrant, working band—featuring vocalist Rockelle Whitaker, along with trumpeter Terell Stafford, saxophonist Tim Warfield, pianist Rick Roe and drummer Dana Hall—they imbue Hill's fresh, idiosyncratic compositions with fiery interaction, deep swing, wise decisions, and a forward-thinking sense of adventure.

"The variety is broad, and the band itself can blow up a storm!" WTJU
