Jimmy Giuffre: Next Steps

Jimmy Giuffre: Next Steps

Reedist Jimmy Giuffre pioneered a deeply intimate, lyric kind of jazz, most famously with his chamber-like drummerless trios, but he thrived in other contexts as well. He swerved alongside vibist Teddy Charles on “Evolution” with a ravishing level of interplay, and that sort of exchange defined his career through the ‘90s, whether in delicate conversation with the celeste of Jimmy Rowles on “Deep Purple” or as part of a velvety horn section with Lee Konitz on a mellow reading of “Someone to Watch Over Me.”
