Acquire this two-volume, four-disc set and you’ll not only own much of the recorded output of the Microscopic Septet (a.k.a. the Micros), you’ll also travel back to a time in New York’s “downtown” history when the band played haunts like the Ear Inn, the Dive, the Peppermint Lounge, Studio Henry and the recently shuttered CBGB.
Co-led by soprano saxophonist Phillip Johnston and pianist Joel Forrester, the Micros-with four saxes plus rhythm-brought strong playing and impeccable craftsmanship to the table, even as they shattered stylistic boundaries and proved that art music could be infectiously fun.
Recorded at Mephisto, Rotterdam, the Netherlands, November 23, 1984
