O’s Notes: Pianist and composer Alan Rosenthal leads a trio with bassist Brian Glassman and drummer Mike Campania for 5 of the 9 selections. He also goes solo, plays in a quartet and a septet. We liked the pervasive, gentle swing that connected the entire set. Highlights are “Drop Me Here”, “They Didn’t Believe Me”, “Old-Fashioned Valentine” and “Monk Over Marrakesh”.
