Travel Songbook: Jazz standards with traveling as a main theme. An energetic collection of famous tracks like Take the 'A' Train and Come fly with me in surprising arrangements and with tasteful specials. But also the less famous songs hit the spot, like Voyage from Kenny Barron with lyrics by Judith. A varied and refreshing show that pays homage to the true jazz classics.
