O’s Notes: Veteran jazz bassist Charnett Moffett has performed behind countless leading jazz acts over the last 3+ decades but takes the leadership role on“Bright New Day, an eclectic album with a mix of free jazz, chamber jazz, and even a taste of folk music. The music is new, unique and features Moffett solely on his fretless electric bass. Brian Jackson (keyboards), Scott Tixier (violin), Mark Whitfield, Jr. (d), and Jana Herzen (g, vocals) round out the quintet. There is a lot of imagination here as Moffett gets introspective and emotional sharing melodies with Tixler.
