Rodney Whitaker's Mosaic Album Gets Rave Review!

Rodney Whitaker has cemented his legendary status as a sought-after bassist extraordinaire and, arguably the pre-eminent jazz educator of his generation. Mosaic (Origin, 2025) is the fourth collaboration between Hill and Whitaker and features his vibrant work.

..."Yet, beyond the beauty of its arrangements, this album offers something even more compelling—the sheer pleasure of hearing a bassist who so clearly delights in drawing the most perfect tones from his instrument.

For the most significant jazz musicians, their craft is nothing less than a form of literary expression. This is precisely the case here, which is why we unreservedly place Mosaic atop our list of “Indispensables.”

—DOWNBEAT

"...Something Truly Extraordinary."

 

–The Jazz Word

​This second pairing of the dominant trombonist of our time and the prolific idiosyncratic composer Gregg Hill plays out in an expansive aural sandbox. Full of reminders of '70s cinema, Zappa albums circa The Grand Wazoo, bebop, and big bands through the ages, the strong melodies and committed musical integrity assure the feeling is substantial, swinging, and exciting. Structured and highly contrapuntal pieces unfold in sections, with...
