Media Event with The Christopher Jentsch Trio is 72.57 minutes of highly enjoyable contemporary jazz! Music composed by Christopher Jentsch, and others, this is an exciting excursion into contemporary jazz that possesses flair, style, feeling, and joy!

There are 14 selections on this CD, and each one is as unique as the performance by the musicians! Christopher Jentsch performs some of the nicest guitar music to come down the pike in a long while, and it is fresh and invigorating performances he gives the jazz listener with such songs as "Tell Me Your Stories," "I Still Love You," "Summer grasses, all that remains of soldiers' dreams," among other well-crafted compositions.

This CD should have a lot of appeal for all jazz listeners. It is fresh and alive, and the performances are flawless, and perfect on the songs found in the "Media Event" CD. Give it a listen, invite some friends over, play it again. Discover its magic. Excellent CD. The trio: Christopher Jentsch on guitar, Dan Feiszli on bass, and Jon Arkin on drums.
