Horizons
Charles McPherson is an accomplished alto saxophonist rooted in the bebop tradition, carrying forward the legacy of Charlie Parker with his own distinctive voice. Horizons from 1998 is a straightforward, beautifully executed bop recording. McPherson's tone is warm and soulful, his improvisations logical and lyrical. The album finds him exploring jazz standards and original compositions with an intimate ensemble in a direct, acoustic setting that prioritizes musicianship and conversation between players. If you're drawn to authentic post-bop saxophone playing that respects tradition while maintaining personal conviction, this recording delivers exactly that without unnecessary flourishes.
