Chet Baker - Sextet Quartet
Review by Katy Sauer
Sextet Quartet is a remarkable jazz album by the legendary musician, Chet Baker. Released in 1983, the album features some of Baker's most iconic works, brought to life by a team of talented musicians.
The album's standout feature is the perfect blend of Baker's trumpet with the saxophone, bass, drums, and piano. The tracks are a mix of originals and covers, with each one showcasing the musical prowess of the ensemble.
The album opens with "For Minors Only," a fast-paced tune that sets the tone for what's to come. The group then moves on to "Minor Yours," a bluesy track that highlights Baker's smooth trumpet playing. The title track, "Sextet," is a beautiful composition that showcases the ensemble's ability to play as a cohesive unit.
The album's standout track is "How Deep Is the Ocean." Baker's trumpet playing is both haunting and beautiful, and the arrangement perfectly complements his performance. The other tracks on the album are just as impressive, with each one showcasing the ensemble's musical talents.
