Miguel Gorodi
bebop post-bop contemporary jazz
Influences: Charlie Parker, Lennie Tristano, Coleman Hawkins
Trumpet and alto saxophone co-leaders Miguel Gorodi and Sam Braysher reunite their quartet to explore the art of the contrafact—new melodies composed over the harmonic frameworks of classic jazz standards. Drawing directly from the tradition of Parker, Tristano and Hawkins, they balance inventive original melodies with reimagined standards by composers like Horace Silver and Warne Marsh, creating fresh harmonic interplay without abandoning swing.
