“In September 2008, the Festival of New Trumpet Music staged a major retrospective of Woody Shaw’s compositions at the Jazz Standard in New York. There, a pair of Shaw’s one-time bandmates, Mulgrew Miller on piano and Victor Lewis on drums, backed three young-lion horn players with chops. The result is an intense musical experience.” -Dee Dee Bridgewater of JazzSet, NPR
