The American Jazz Institute presents Mark Masters Ensemble “Peggy’s Blue Skylight” Capri Records cd

 

 

 

Arrangements (arguably “recompositions”) by Masters of Mingus and Mulligan material. A real showcase for the system–superb engineering.

Now:

I only got this recently, and I'm really enjoying it.  The music is full of vitality.  Is there any higher praise?!?
