Dave Grusin – Migration
Migration is an album by American pianist Dave Grusin released in 1989, recorded for the GRP label. The album reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Contemporary Jazz chart.
On this diverse and generally interesting (if not essential) CD, keyboardist/composer Dave Grusin performs a five-song suite from his soundtrack of The Milagro Beanfield War along with selections by Harvey Mason, his brother Don Grusin, Hugh Masekela, Marcus Miller and himself. Other than the suite (which has a string section), the music is mostly played by smaller groups, with Branford Marsalis on tenor and soprano a major asset on three songs and flugelhornist Hugh Masekela taking a solo on his own “Polina.” (Scott Yanow/AllMusic).
