Carl Schultz- Road To Trantor

the album cover for Carl Schultz - Road To Trantor

While composing for his newest recording, saxophonist Carl Schultz realized he was visualizing rich cinematic landscapes as his tunes were taking form. Likely related to his rereading of Hugo Award winning science fiction books at the time, it made sense to flesh out a complete narrative for the compositions to take, thus "The Road to Trantor," the soundtrack of an epic tale that exists only in the mind of Schultz. Armed with a concept, some electronics, and an ensemble well-versed in evocative, highly creative explorations, Schultz, guitarist Tim Wendel, keyboardist Adam Benjamin, bassist Zack Teran, and drummer Alwyn Robinson create an expansive album of modern jazz that unfolds in the dramatic arc of a mesmerizing saga well-told. "the interplay of this dynamic is on full display, and from this conviction comes cohesive, melodic, intricate, expressive and compelling music." - Bird & Beckett (SF) "... incredible tenor renderings seem to catalog the history of the tenor sax, invoking shades of Lester Young and Dexter Gordon..." - All About Jazz
