Like his late tenor saxophonist father Dewey Redman, saxophonist Redman is a prolific jazz adventurer. In 30 years, he has released 16 albums (including one with the Bad Plus). The latest, 2023′s “Where We Are,” offers a travelogue of sorts, including a version of Bruce Springsteen’s “Streets of Philadelphia,” Jimmy Webb’s “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” and John Coltrane’s “Alabama.” The album opens with “After Minneapolis (face toward mo(u)rning),” that starts with Redman’s sax playing “This Land Is Your Land” before building into a mournful screech followed by beguiling vocals by Gabrielle Cavassa about fear and freedom braided with piano chords. The 2021 co-winner of the Sarah Vaughan International Vocal Competition, 28, sings throughout the album and will join Redman in concert with pianist Paul Cornish, bassist Philip Norris and drummer Nazir Ebo.
