Summary
A new, deeply moving collection of music from the late jazz legend Sir Roland Hanna is here, offering a powerful dose of humanity and resilience in today’s world. This compilation, drawn from his work with IPO Recordings, captures Hanna’s raw emotion and timeless artistry, reminding us of jazz’s enduring power to heal. IPO, a champion of post-WWII jazz greats like James Moody, Hank Jones, and Benny Golson, gave these overlooked masters a platform to collaborate and create freely — often for the first and only time. Highlights include the only recording of Moody and Jones together, Frank Wess’s final duets, and masterful improvisations honoring composers like Tom McIntosh and Thad Jones. Nine artists on IPO’s roster are honored Jazz Masters — and many of these sessions are irreplaceable historical moments, making this release not just music, but a vital cultural artifact.
