For this edition of New Sounds, tenor saxophonist Paul Shapiro stops by to present tracks from his latest exuberant release, “It’s in the Twilight” (another in John Zorn’s Radical Jewish Culture series.) The record is full of playful interactions that might be best described as Cuban-Jewish Blue Note soul that jumps, jives, and swings, while somehow merging the secular and the spiritual throughout. Listen for a traditional Passover Seder tune arranged for the band. Also, hear from drummer Bobby Previte’s latest project - The Coalition of the Willing - an all-star band doing guitar fueled instrumental rock/jazz, and much more.
