O’s Notes: Paul Dietrich is a Chicago-based trumpeter, composer, arranger, and educator. His jazz ensemble is packed with precise brass harmonies underscored by bassist John Christensen and featured drummer Clarence Penn. There are many solos worth noting. Tony Barba (t-sax) and Russ Johnson (t) on “Rush” & “Perennial”, Andy Baker (tb) and Matt Gold (g) on “Like Water”, and Dietrich (t) on “Green Field”. This album could easily be titled“Tranquility with the peaceful rest inspired by the warm brass and interwoven vocalization (Megan Moran).
