O’s Notes: Multi-instrumentalist, composer Tom Nazziola embarks on an adventure with Distant Places, an aural depiction of many natural scenes. The sounds are rich, syncopated and descriptive. “Over The Horizon” features Tom on marimba with violinist Todd Reynolds and a string section. “Bass Palmas” and “Distant Places” are packed with adventure and excitement, two of our favorite tracks in the session. Doug Oberhamer (p) and Dan Willis (s-sax) combine on the pacifying “Sisley Tower”. We also enjoyed the drum duet with Nazziola and Dave Anthony on “Fifth Floor Annex”.
