MAT MANERI & LUCIAN BAN NEW QUINTET
Mat Maneri , viola; Tony Malaby, tenor sax; Lucian Ban, piano; Bob Stewart, tuba; Gerald Cleaver, drums
Fresh of their 2013 ECM Records album “Transylvanian Concert” (BEST of 2013, All About Jazz ) Grammy nominated violist Mat Maneri and Transylvanian expat pianist Lucian Ban are premiering at CSC their new project featuring an all star group of: Tony Malaby on ten sax, Gerald Cleaver on drums and legendary tuba player Bob Stewart. They have all worked together in many groups in the past, notably the award winning “Enesco Re-Imagined” project in the case of Maneri, Ban and Malaby, Gerald’s Cleaver Uncle June (Maneri & Malaby) or Tuba Project (Ban & Stewart). The Guardian UK has called Lucian Ban “A name to watch” and All About Jazz has said that Mat Maneri “has changed the way jazz world listens to violin & viola” while the New York Times has described Tony Malaby as “A fountain of creative and energized improvising”. Bob Stewart is widely considered along Howard Johnson asresponsible for bringing “new glory to the tuba” (NY Times) in modern jazz with collaborations with everybody from Gil Evans, Carla Bley to Arthur Blythe and Sonny Rollins. Add to the mix one of the true masters of contemporary drumming Nasheet Waits . . . . and you will be surely in for a treat surprise.
