Details:
Steve Herberman and his trio stretch out over a set of favorite modern jazz classics and originals ranging in styles, meters and moods. The unique arrangements and extended improvisation coupled with subtle group interplay holds the listeners attention. At the root of Steve''s playing is a love of contrapuntal textures, a harmonic approach to improvising and rhythmic diversity. "Ideals" consists of four new original compositions and seven standards with a few surprises.
"(Herberman''s) improvised lines roll out with subtle diversity in phrasing and above all, dynamic contract. His accompaniment (both of himself and his bandmates) is complimentary, exacting, and always stylish...Herberman continues to be one of the finest guitarists of his generation, and Ideals slots into an already notable, and hopefully long, celebrated discography".
-Dave Major, All About Jazz 10/08
Liner Notes by Vic Juris:
I have been a big fan of Steve''s for a number of years now. This new CD captures his best playing to date. Recording a guitar trio CD requires a good deal of preparation and requires the right bassist and drummer.
Bassist Tom Baldwin is one of the best of the new breed that I have heard in a number of years. He accompanies the trio flawlessly and has impeccable intonation and accuracy. Drummer Mark Ferber is one of the busiest players on the New York scene. He really understands the dynamic levels of the guitar and is extremely creative and supportive. Steve Herberman is the present and
the future of jazz guitar.
BIO
"Steve Herberman exhibits a vast harmonic palette involving uncommon stretches on the fretboard along with a real capacity to burn on fluent single note lines... His sheer command of the instrument puts one in mind of such jazz guitar masters as Joe Pass, Joe Diorio, Lenny Breau, and Gene Bertoncini. His nuanced touch, excellent tone, tasteful, even phrasing and fresh writing style, further elevates Herberman far above the pack of other talented Berklee grads...definitely worth checking out for fans of advanced jazz guitar."- Bill Milkowski, JazzTimes (05/07)
