Charles Lloyd Quartet

Jez Nelson presents a second chance to hear saxophonist Charles Lloyd and his quartet at last year's London Jazz Festival, this time broadcasting the complete performance. Lloyd's 2010 album, Mirrors, was acclaimed as a highlight of his 40-year career and this concert, coming just a few weeks after its release, lived up to expectations. His new quartet, featuring Jason Moran, one of the premier pianists of his generation, drummer Eric Harland and bassist Reuben Rogers, is possibly Lloyd's finest since his seminal 1960s group with Jack DeJohnette, Keith Jarrett and Cecil McBee.
