Rising Star vibraphonist Behn Gillece strikes an effortless
and joyous balance between sound, silence and
rhythm on his new album “Between The Bars.” With
tasteful application of his craft, Gillece repeatedly shifts
his focus back and forth between a variety of techniques
and perspectives. While doing this, he moves straight
forward through a series of original compositions that
skillfully combine his high-powered harmonic approach
with stunning displays of lyricism, creating an engaging
set of transformative tour de force performances. Gillece
shines brightly throughout, while clearly enjoying the
supportive companionship of pianist Art Hirahara,
bassist Peter Slavov, and drummer Vinnie Sperrazza,
each of whom provide unique contributions to the proceedings.
Also joining the band for a few tracks are saxophonists
Diego Rivera and Patrick Cornelius, along with
talented newcomer trombonist Altin Sencalar. With an
expressive program of musical expeditions, “Between
The Bars” is an engaging exposition that will
transport listeners into new realms of insight and
sonorous delight.
