“That seems like such a huge concept now, but it’s inherent to the very idea of playing jazz. “Without the question mark, What Comes Next implies that you have some idea, some intention,” Bernstein explains. Bernstein will perform in a livestream event at the label’s namesake New York City club this weekend, August 14 and 15, at 8:00PM with the band from the album. With what once was the simple act of gathering four stellar musicians in a room to play music together, the album points a musical way forward in the way that only the most incisive jazz can. Due out October 16 on Smoke Sessions Records, What Comes Next not only arrives in the midst of quarantine but was recorded during the lockdown as well. While the interrogative continues to apply, especially for musicians in a world without gigs, Bernstein set out to make a statement as well. Locked away, wary of leaving the house during a global pandemic, divided by politics and protests, all during the most vital Presidential election in living memory – any one of those issues would spell an uncertain future.īut look again at that title: Bernstein very deliberately left off the question mark.
The title of What Comes Next , the latest album by guitarist Peter Bernstein, certainly echoes a question that we’ve all been asking ourselves in recent months.
