A stunning double bass solo from Matt Brewer opens this take on Abbey Lincoln classic 'Throw It Away' with Gretchen Parlato delivering the vocal line so precisely and effectively, the maelstrom of the all-star ensemble giving a lot of life to the backdrop. This is from New Works Reflecting the Moment: Live from the SFJAZZ Center 2021 to be released in March the piece also featuring a winning trumpet solo from Etienne Charles. Looking further ahead the SFJazz Collective play the Barbican in London on 25 June
