On April 13th, the Jazz Gallery hosted an album release concert by the Gustavo Cortiñas Quartet from Chicago, featuring jazz luminaries Mark Feldman on violin, saxophonist Jon Irabagon, and guitarist Dave Miller, with Cortiñas on drums. The new album, The Crisis Knows No Borders, contains compositions by Cortiñas addressing climate change and its eventual effects on all humans regardless of geographic location.
It was exciting to have such an impressive group on the Gallery's small but storied stage, and I felt that this recording came out quite well.
