Marc Cary


Big Wheel

Recommended Posts

When my local HMV closed it doors in May I was able to scoop up a few nice discs for about $4 each. One of them was Marc Cary's "Trillium", a piano trio with Tarus Mateen and Nasheet Waits. Because of the presence of Mateen and Waits, comparisons with Jason Moran are inevitable. Cary's got more McCoy Tyner and less Andrew Hill in him, so the compositions aren't quite as intriguing, but the playing is great, very spirited. Does anyone know if he's working as a leader these days? I noticed that he's been on the Roy Hargrove electric album that just came out as well as a similar effort by Russell Gunn, but that's about it for the last year or so.

In 2006 I had the pleasure to see Marc Cary playing with Stefon Harris and I was really impressed by his playing. I don’t know why I had to wait another 3 years until I picked up one f his CDs. "Trillium" is a great piano trio and I really enjoy it. I definitely need more Marc Cary's recordings in my collection.
