Moment and the Message is the long-awaited debut from Jonathan Finlayson, one of the most sought after young trumpeters in jazz. A member of alto saxophonist Steve Colemans band Five Elements, Finlayson is widely admired for his ability to tackle cutting-edge musical concepts with aplomb. In just the last four years, his playing has been featured on an astonishing three albums that were named #1 album of the year by The New York Times: alto saxophonist Steve Lehmans Travail, Transformation and Flow (Pi 2009), Steve Coleman and Five Elements Harvesting Semblances and Affinities(Pi 2010) and David Virelless Continuum (Pi 2012).
