James Carter and Joshua Redman square off at Carnegie Hall.
Two of the great young tenor players on the same stage. James Carter also played with the World Saxophone Quartet. Joshua Redman was actually in law school when he decided to become a professional saxophonist. He’s going to be at the Monterey Jazz Festival this year, so I’m looking forward to that.

NICE!
Awesome, Neal. I liked both players, but Carter’s “statements” were clearer to me. A question of technique?

Hey Manel, probably just your preference. They have their own sounds. I think Joshua Redman’s younger too.
Ok, agree with you. By the way, I’ve got a blog on literature, films, music, and used some video you posted on Unspoken Language, very good one, and used it to write a bit on storytelling in music, based on personalist philosophy. You may like it.
