A masterful performance that conveys the golden rules of modern jazz to the present day.
Sonny Rollins' ensemble, a tribute to Charlie Parker, embodies the very essence of bebop.
In "Now's The Time!", Rollins reinterprets classic songs associated with Parker with his unique humor and dynamic interpretation. The fluid phrasing and earth-shaking, powerful tones highlight the vibrant life force of jazz improvisation. This masterpiece is the culmination of his pioneering spirit, which maintains a deep respect for tradition while always looking towards the future.
