The musical children of Ray Brown

Christian McBride is regarded as one of the best bassists of his generation. The nine-time Grammy award-winning bassist, composer and arranger has released over twenty albums and worked on over 400 recordings. McBride has performed with jazz legends such as Joe Henderson, Freddie Hubbard, Herbie Hancock, Roy Haynes and Chick Corea as well as with new school stars Joshua Redman and Nicholas Payton.

Honouring a jazz grandmaster

McBride last appeared in a relaxed summit meeting with Brad Mehldau, Joshua Redman and Brian Blade three years ago at the Vienna Konzerthaus. Now the bassist returns and honours the great bandleader and Dizzy Gillespie collaborator Ray Brown in a trio.

Christian McBride honours his mentor

»Ray was like a second father to me«, McBride remembers the »King of Bass«. »In the early 90s, Ray relaunched his career as a talent scout for the younger generation. He hired Benny Green and Greg Hutchinson. He then hired Geoffrey Keezer, Karriem Riggins and Larry Fuller. He eventually became Diana Krall's mentor. I was lucky enough to be one of his musical children.«

Powerful jazz trio

With Benny Green on piano and Greg Hutchinson on drums, the trio is complete: both musicians once worked intensively under the direction of the great Ray Brown.
