Ryan Truesdell - Gil Evans Project: Lines Of Color Live At Jazz Standard (2015)

The Gil Evans Project's second recording! Recorded LIVE during their fourth-annual, week-long engagement at the Jazz Standard in New York City, Tuesday through Sunday, May 13th - 18th, 2014. During this six night live recording event, they covered a wide range of Gil's music, from the music he did for the Claude Thornhill Orchestra in the 1940s to the music written for various recording sessions through the late-60s. They recorded many recently-discovered, previously un-recorded works that were heard for the first time, in addition to some of Gil's classic arrangements! It's an honor to be able to present these historical masterpieces to all of you through this project, and for this music to finally be documented by this incredible group of musicians!
