CD Reviews

I was hoping for more...

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I saw Horton perform with Ben Allison and was quite impressed with his chops and interpretative ability. That came as little surprse since I had felt the same way upon hearing Horton in a sideman capacity on a number of titles by Allison and others.

While this disc is not without some very nice moments, too much of it sounds stiff and "through-composed." I enjoy "high-art" in my music as part of the experience- not high-art just for the sake of it and after my initial listen that is what I came away feeling. Even after shelving this title and revisiting it I just can get entirely past its repertory feel.

So all-in-all this is not a bad title, it just didn't live up to my pre-disc expectations. And you know what they say, "expectations are the building blocks of disappointment.""
