FLIRTING WITH MOONLIGHT

Description:
Native Chicagoan Kurt Elling is quickly becoming the preeminent male vocalist of his generation. Deeply influenced by Jon Hendricks, and Mark Murphy, Elling is a chance taking improviser, who brings a fresh approach to modern jazz. On this 2001 release, he is teamed up with tenor saxophonist Bob Sheppard, among others and an all star rhythm section featuring Marc Johnson on bass and Peter Erskine on drums. Largely mellow and ballad driven, Flirting With Twilight shows the depth of Elling's musical conception. Highlights include a fresh reworking of the Glenn Miller classic, "Moonlight Serenade" and a smart version of the subtle "Lil' Darlin'."
