JAZZ: Cuong Vu Quartet (10/9)

By Ron Netsky on October 7, 2009

Since Miles Davis set the standard in the 1950's, there have been few true innovators on the trumpet. Over the last decade, Cuong Vu has emerged as a startlingly fresh voice on the instrument. Aside from his own wonderful albums, daringly fusing the melodic and the abstract, his talents have enhanced performances by Pat Metheny, Laurie Anderson, and David Bowie. Joining him at the Bop Shop will be the excellent bassist Stomu Takeshi and the extraordinary young drummer (and ex-Rochesterian) Ted Poor. Another bassist, Luke Bergman, rounds out the group.
