In many ways, Charles Mingus and Gerry Mulligan couldn’t have been more different. One was notoriously fiery and confrontational; the other understated, the epitome of cool. But one thing that these two jazz icons did share – beyond their influential shaping of the music’s low end – was their singularity of vision, a wholly unique perspective that in different ways redirected the trajectory of jazz through their own individual conceptions – with complete disregard for the naysayers.

With that in mind, both Mulligan and Mingus would no doubt approve of the reimaginings that Mark Masters has made of their compositions on Blue Skylight, out February 17 on Capri Records. The word “arrangements” doesn’t quite do justice to Masters’ approach; these eleven pieces are vivid acts of recomposition, each vividly rendered and finely tailored to fit the gifted and distinctive players of the Mark Masters Ensemble.
