ben allison jim hall project-

[cliffpeterson]

Attended the first concert of Allison's latest project. Included Ted Nash on tenor and Steve Cardenas on guitar. In the future they will have a drummer. Playing off charts and the set list was somewhat adhoc. But it was till great. In addition to hall originals, they did two giuffre tunes including "train and the river" How may opportunities do you get to hear that last piece played live?

It was fun and great music. Would attend another such concert further down the road.

I am going to see Ben in Baltimore on 10/24. Not sure if it's the same project.
