Editorial Reviews
With ten years of international performing, this duo’s concerts & masterclasses draw great acclaim everywhere from Boston’s celebrated Jordan Hall & New England Conservatory to the Mulinn Jazz Club and the prestigious F.I.H. music school in Reykjavik, Iceland. Tapped for collaborations by jazz legends for their dynamic interplay, they have concertized with masters ranging from Bob Moses and Eddie Harris to the next generation of jazz composers including Luciana Souza and David Gilmore. As members of the Boston jazz scene they have added their trademark duet texture & compositions to the blues and funk of Stan Strickland, the gospel sounds of George W. Russell, Jr., the straight-ahead swing of Phillipe Crettien, and the lush ballad sounds of Kris Adams.
Since his move to Boston in 1994, David Zoffer has recorded and performed his compositions and arrangements with jazz luminaries such as Eddie Gomez, Danilo Perez, Paul Bley, Don Alias, Don Byron, George Garzone, Dave Liebman, Titilayo Ngwenya, Oscar Stegnaro, John Lockwood, Hankus Netsky, George W. Russell, Jr. (From the Top Radio Show Band), Satoko Fujii, Bhob Rainey and Darren Barrett. Zoffer has played at all of Boston’s finest venues ranging from jazz clubs like Sculler’s (after winning the 1995 Boston Jazz Society Award) and the Regattabar, to concert halls including Jordan Hall (at New England Conservatory-where Zoffer is Prep/Cont. Ed. Dept. jazz chair) and the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, to funk/rock clubs such as Johnny D’s and The Paradise (with his band the Differential). Making his first of several television appearances as a jazz musician at eleven years old, David Zoffer quickly became a part of the Pittsburgh jazz scene. Playing with local heroes such as! Dave Budway, Joe Negri, Johnny Costa, Dwayne Dolphin, and Randy Purcell, Zoffer eventually began gigging with Horace Silver alumni Roger Humphries and Ramon Morris. Harry Connick, Jr. , selected Zoffer as the 1987 Mellon Jazz Festival All-Star Pianist and brought him to New York at age fifteen to play with him at clubs like the Knickerbocker, which landed him performances with N.Y. players such as Wynton Marsalis and Jeremy Steig. Midwestern performances with pop fusion stars Bela Fleck and the Flecktones and jazz master Marcus Belgrave followed Zoffer’s study at Oberlin Conservatory.
Adam Larrabee has performed with many jazz greats including Dave Holland, Jimmy Heath, Larry Goldings, Barry Harris, and Hilton Ruiz. Mr. Larrabee’s countless sideman recordings include pop music on Bruce Hornsby's 1997 Spirit Trail record, and Tango and Eastern European dance music with 2001 Massachusetts Arts Council Grant recipient Evan Harlan. This gifted composer/arranger’s music has premiered at Julliard, Arizona State University, New England Conservatory (where he is Jazz Guitar faculty for Prep/Cont. Ed. dept.), Oberlin Conservatory, and the Notre Dame Jazz Festival. As a featured soloist with the Great American Music Ensemble, Larrabee has played at many prestigious halls, including the Kennedy Center. The original compositions on the CD of his fusion/bluegrass band, Bath Union Hope, display his mastery of guitar, as well as his secondary instruments, banjo and mandolin.
