Vibraphonist Joe Locke makes his symphonic debut, in conjunction with the Lincoln Symphony Orchestra, with this lush, melodic recording. Recorded in one take in live performance, Locke s brilliance in this new setting affirms his stature as one of the most versatile and virtuosic leaders around. This is Joe Locke s first-ever symphony recording, and also the first recorded effort by Lincoln s Symphony Orchestra. Special promotions will be conducted by the symphony in their hometown of Lincoln, Nebraska. Follows Locke s recent release with Geoffrey Keezer, which garnered critical acclaim including five stars in Jazz Journal, four stars in JazzWise, and rave reviews in All About Jazz, All Music, eMusic, and more.
