Recording and mixing jazz is an art in itself, especially when it comes to drums. This requires balancing a dynamic range that extends from nuanced, feathery light to bright, totally explosive light. James Farber is someone who has an uncanny ability to capture just that and at the same time bring out the true acoustic voice of any instrument he puts a mic on. With over 1,000 albums to his credit, over 40 years of consecutive work producing records of the highest standard and a discography that reads like the who's who of jazz, he is nothing short of a jazz icon. the industry. The seminal albums of Michael Brecker, John Scofield and Joshua Redman as well as, notably, his work with great jazz drummers like Elvin Jones, Jack DeJohnette, Paul Motian, Bill Stewart, Brian Blade and Antonio Sanchez are – to say the least – a testimony to this.
