Description
Ben Allison is a “visionary composer, adventurous improviser, and strong organizational force on the New York City jazz scene, [and] has emerged as a rising star over the past decade” (JazzTimes). Cited in the “Best Bassist” category of the 2007, 2006 and 2005 Down Beat Readers’ Poll. Allison’s Man Size Safe quintet mixes joyous exuberance and good-humored irreverence with textured
grooves and an occasional political jab.
“Ben Allison's music has all the earmarks of jazz in motion to a higher evolutionary plateau.” -- Billboard
Part of the Da Camera Jazz series.
