The Yale Undergraduate Jazz Collective has done it again. A loose collection of jazz nerds assemble a spring festival to celebrate jazz. On this evening, guitar wizard Kreisberg along with drums and standup bass was the offering. Kreisberg’s bio showed him holding down guitar duties for the late great polychromatic-turbanned Dr. Lonnie Smith. Smith died last September so Kreisberg struck out on his own. Nice evening of mainly standards showcased the fluid style of the hollow body guitar. In the style of Wes Montgomery or George Benson, the trio played How Deep is the Ocean, a speedy Moonlight in Vermont, You and the Night and the Music, and Easy Living. Closed with and excellent version of My Favorite Things.
