    David Lahm: More Jazz Takes on Joni Mitchell CD in a jewel case.

    Jazz pianist/composer David Lahm continues to demonstrate that Joni Mitchell‘s songs fit perfectly into the world of Jazz while maintaining their own distinctive flair with his Arkadia Records album, “David Lahm: More Jazz Takes on Joni Mitchell”, a follow-up to the critically acclaimed “Jazz Takes on Joni Mitchell”.

    “An excellent piece of work; Lahm’s work on the piano throughout is masterful.” -Ear Polution

    David Lahm’s first album of Mitchell compositions featured a revolving cast of players and was praised in Jazz Times as being both “reverent and adventurous”. This time around, Lahm has assembled a core rhythm section of bassist Ratso Harris and drummer Ron Vincent (who appeared on the first volume) to propel front line saxophonists Vincent Herring and Roger Rosenberg and all-star trumpeter Randy Brecker. Although the instrumentation is more consistent than on volume one, the album is no less diverse in its approaches to Mitchell’s evocative Folk-Rock songs, as well as several Lahm original compositions which shine through in this vibrant and striking session.00168 Rogeer Rosenb erg bw pose sax00170 Ratzo Harris bw pose bass00169 Vincent Herring bw pose sax

    “In sometimes startlingly deconstructionist mode, Lahm captures [Mitchell’s] musical and emotional complexity.” – JazzTimes

    David Lahm’s rich harmonic imagination and rhythmic incisiveness, along with his genre-crossing insights into Mitchell’s music yield this rich and varied album, “More Jazz Takes on Joni Mitchell”. Lahm’s own compositions represent mainstream Jazz at its best, with strong melodies and chord changes, and inventive arrangements that provide creative challenges for the soloists, but with this 2nd volume, and taking inspiration from Mitchell’s musical prowess, he displays his own ability to renew and reinterpret the conventions of mainstream Jazz.

David Lahm New York, New York

It sometimes seems that there are three David Lahms. One is an extremely original and talented jazz pianist; another is a composer of great versatility and imagination; and yet another is an outstanding accompanist of jazz and cabaret vocalists. But of course, that’s not true, all three are rolled into one uniquely talented individual. ... more
