CAFE PALOMA: Wayne Horvitz Quartet
from Earshot Jazz: The perpetually effervescent Wayne Horvitz takes to a small local stage with a handful of well known sideman – Mark Taylor, Geoff Harper and Eric Eagle. Most jazz aficionados in town know the biography and credits of this New York City ex-patriot, as he used to be one of the highest profile musicians in town. Lately he’s been quite a bit stealthier, all the while maintaining a healthy stream of increasingly compelling recordings. Last year he even received a NEA American Masterpieces grant for his recent work with a string quartet. How many chances do you get to see such a high caliber performer in such an intimate setting?
