"Their musicianship is remarkable and they have figured out how to make prayer and jazz fuse into a genuine liturgy."
Product Description
Band du Soleil's "Jazz Vespers" evolved as the trio explored various genres of repertory. They found themselves attracted to the American Spirituals, and the color of their sound lended itself quite well to the style of the spirituals. In addition to the spirituals, "Jazz Vespers" includes contemporary and jazz arrangements of traditional hymns. In this diverse collection, Band du Soleil's "Jazz Vespers" takes you from quiet and meditative moments to finger-snapping and toe-tapping fun.
