I must have discovered Emmet Cohen and friends about a year ago. Patrick Bartley impressed me hugely. All these guys are top notch! If you're looking for places where Jazz is the language of the world, this is it.

I love what Patrick says about phrasing. This is an example of an essential detail that's not really addressed in the setting of a college music education. It's the type of detail you get from your mentors, and from assimilating the masters' recordings. He also mentions poetry; creating a 'tone poem' from the words of a poem is a great exercise I use with my own students.
