Review:

This is the twentieth ninth in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

Kristen Strom is an excellent bop-based tenor-saxophonist with a warm tone who is a fixture in the San Francisco Bay area and has been on over 30 albums including two of her own.

Scott Sorkin is a versatile guitarist equally skilled at soloing and accompanying others.

The two make a fine team on this Livestream from April 6, 2020

The music begins five minutes into the Livestream with the verse of “Stardust” leading into a warm and joyful version of Fats Waller’s “Jitterbug Waltz.”

Ms. Strom sings “My Shining Hour,” plays melodically on soprano-sax during “Blackbird,” and concludes with a warm version of “My Ideal” that has a beautiful opening guitar chorus by Sorkin.

The overall results are a tasteful and swinging set of music.
