Review: The instant we hear the luminously pure and warm echoing tintinnabulation of Mr. Freeman’s vibraphone, know that we are in safe hands. Freeman plays airy vibrating keys aglow with rhythm, along with the subtly-hued trumpet, and propulsion of the bass, drums and percussion all make for a powerfully flowing set. The playing throughout this repertoire is crisp and alert and always fluent.
