O’s Notes: This is a large trio led by pianist and writer Holman. Pawel Jarzebski (b) and Rusty Jones (d) combine notes with Scott to produce a larger than expected sound. Pawel leads the way into “Noble One” with an excellent solo. We liked the cool pace of “His Children Dance”. “The Thought” is one of two solos that are calm and thought provoking. They contrast with the upbeat and eclectic sounds of “The Smile”. The sound is excellent, enhancing a good performance.
