Resonance

John Hart's collaboration with SteepleChase started in 2016 with sideman role on the late alto sax Andy Fusco's Turmoil (SCCD 31843). The guitarist/composer/educator Hart since has kept releasing a barrage of highly acclaimed leader albums. On this his fifth outing he has assembled an impeccable quartet featuring Rich Perry on tenor and Brian Charette on B-3. "He has just released Resonance (2023) on SteepleChase, his fifth date for the legendary Danish label headed by Nils Winther. Labelmate, tenor saxophonist Rich Perry joins him along with organist Brian Charette and longtime collaborator Steve Johns handling the percussion duties. The breadth and eclecticism of Resonance's playlist is plainly evident from Hart's illustrious recording pedigree. We hear a refreshing mix of five originals and four standards."
