I am excited to reunite with vibraphone maestro Daryl Pratt, from Sydney. This new project showcases our music in a duo setting. When Daryl first approached me about the project, I suggested Corea’s Children’s Songs could be an interesting vehicle for exploration, taking inspiration from the collaboration by Corea and vibraphonist Gary Burton. Inspired by the Corea/Burton duo, DeepJade Duo takes advantage of the intimate instrumentation and elegant compositional approaches to explore a duologue that features improvisation in a conversational manner.
Daryl Pratt - Vibraphone
Jonathan Dimond - Electric Bass Guitar
With supporting performance by Sofia Cabonara and Andrew Saragossi, who will find extremes within and shared timbres between vibraphone and saxophones.
