Larry Goldings and John Sneider "Chinwag" Record Release Show with David Sneider, Karl McComas-Reichl and Joe La Barbera

John Sneider (trumpet), Larry Goldings (piano), David Sneider (trumpet), Karl Mc-Comas Reichl (bass), Joe La Barbera (drums)

A 30 year long friendship between musicians is not necessary to make intimate, creative music together, but it certainly doesn't hurt. Chinwag, the first duo record by pianist Larry Goldings and trumpeter John Sneider, is just such a project; a debut three decades in the making. It might seem like a simple undertaking—a small format album of piano and trumpet—but under the hood there is a lot more going on than meets the eyes (or ears).  Chinwag explores a classic American repertoire (by the likes of Stephen Foster, Eubie Blake, Rodgers & Hammerstein and Thelonious Monk) the music suggests multiple eras and multiple dimensions—a new conversation between old friends, a bold exercise in free improvisation and spontaneous composition, and today's vision of a future firmly rooted in the past.
