Chuck Marohnic - Permutations

American jazz pianist Chuck Marohnic was in Denmark in the summer of 1981 on a European tour, when he recorded this intriguing solo album in Copenhagen.

Marohnic (b. 1941) has an impressive background having played with Ira Sullivan, Eddie Jefferson, Richie Cole, Bill Hardman, Junior Cook, Chet Baker, Buddy Rich to mention a few.

The eight performances here are bright and absorbing examples of what Marohnic means when he says that awareness of the harmonic permutations of a tune gives a musician great freedom. - Chris Sheridan
