With "Past Present," the Bay-area trio of guitarist George Cotsirilos, bassist Robb Fisher and drummer Ron Marabuto build on the musical success of 2006's "On The Rebop" and apply a progressive, modern, but gimmick-free jazz treatment to a mix of original and classic compositions. From hard swinging post-bop to latin-infused cookers to acoustic ballads, the challenging and rewarding jazz guitar trio format appeals to the discerning ear, attuned to the use of space, interplay, and dynamic range in support of collective expression. "Past Present" reflects the years this trio has spent establishing the rapport required to reach a balance of originality, subtlety, swing, past and present.
