The Audience

Ralph Lalama, tenor sax
John Hart, guitar
Rick Petrone, bass
Joe Corsello, drums

The Audience is Lalama’s second CD for Mighty Quinn Productions and his seventh in all as a leader. Like its Mighty Quinn predecessor, 2008’s critically acclaimed Energy Fields, The Audience finds the tenor saxophonist in the empathetic company of guitarist John Hart, bassist Rick Petrone, and drummer Joe Corsello“He doesn’t hide behind anyone else’s ideas, and speaks the truth. He can’t do anything else and I love him for that!” Joe Lovano writes in the liner notes for The Audience, Lalama’s new Mighty Quinn CD.
