Take Five
Trudy's most recent project Take Five celebrates the songs and sounds of alto saxophonist Paul Desmond, focusing on repertoire Desmond performed with Dave Brubeck, as well as Paul’s work in other settings.
The west coast jazz sound is something Trudy has recorded and explored in the past with her critically acclaimed album Remembering Chet Baker.
Take a listen to some of the tracks from the forthcoming recording.
The Beat Goes On
The Beat Goes On evokes the cool, stylish world of Mad Men, hipsters, hard-bop and beatniks.
Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and the Beatles all drew inspiration from the freewheeling style of Jack Kerouac and the 1950s Greenwich Village ‘Beat Poets’ and their songs feature alongside some of the super-hip jazz of the era.
