David Ambrosio possesses an unerring sense of groove that’s as powerful as jazz legend Dave Holland’s. For many years, Ambrosio has been one of New York City’s finest freelance musicians and educators. Bassist Ambrosio and drummer Russ Meissner have been and in-demand New York rhythm section for almost two decades, the driving force behind saxophonist Matt Renzi, pianist Eri Yamamoto and many others. “Moments in Time”, their debut album for Steeplechase’s LookOut imprint, is a collection of interactive, open-textured originals by both men designed to lead an adventurous band into the less-visited spaces of contemporary New York post-bop.
