Going back in time, find some wonderful classics, and give them a contemporary/improvisational twist...
It gives her the greatest pleasure, fills her with joy, to be able to
bring back these particular songs with a new, more contemporary
perspective to an audience.
I would describe this music as "contemporary modal with a romantic
twist" or perhaps "neo-Cool Jazz". It's VERY West Coast. Very much like
Freddie Hubbard, Tony Williams, Wayne Shorter, Miles Davis, Eric Dolphy
& Jackie McLean but in 2012.
Lyrical, good phrasing, nice rhythms but at the same time very
approachable and listenable even for non jazz audiences. Post-Cool
Jazz!!
