The New Quartet introduces Michael Garrick in close-up, stripped of choirs and orchestras and thrown into agile, conversational post-bop with Martin Hathaway, Paul Moylan and Alan Jackson. Across standards, Garrick originals and nods to Joe Harriott and Jaco Pastorius, the 2002 session turns lyricism into a pressure test, revealing how much drama four voices can conjure in a small room.

Legendary pianist/composer Michael Garrick's "new" quartet in 2001 featured saxophonist Martin Hathaway bassist Paul Moylan and drummer Alan Jackson. They perform a mix of Garrick originals, including the classic "Black Marigolds", plus compositions by Benny Golson, Joe Harriott, Jaco Pastorious and others.
