A drummer, trombonist, composer, professor and much more, Sorey is the kind of musician — and inveterate project-starter — who’s tough to keep track of. Even within a single performance, he might surge from a passage of pin-drop silence to overwhelming accrual to delicately crafted collective action. His latest undertaking is a sextet featuring five younger musicians on the New York scene: Nathan Reising on alto saxophone, Morgan Guerin on tenor saxophone, Lex Korten on piano, Sasha Berliner on vibraphone and Nick Dunston on bass. These shows at the Jazz Gallery are the group’s first extended run in New York. - The New York Times
