O’s Notes: Pianist Lenny Marcus expands his jazz trio (with bassist Rick Eckberg and drummer Larry Scott) to include guitarist Brian Muskogee, percussionist Vladimir Espinosa and Ken Hitchcock on flutes and sax. The program includes tunes by McCoy Tyner, Beethoven, Cat Stephens and Mike Marshall as well as several fresh originals by Marcus. That leads to a diverse set of jovial tunes, swinging jazz, some blues and jazzy interpretations of popular music. Gloria’s Step is a giant stride along a proven path.
