    About this album

    Quintet / Sextet is a sharp 1956 jazz date that finds Miles Davis and Milt Jackson in compact, high-level form. Bridging bop and the emerging hard-bop sound, the sessions balance Davis’s muted, spacious phrasing with Jackson’s warm vibraphone lines and a propulsive rhythm section. The result is concise but far from slight: a record of elegant tension, melodic poise and forward motion. Issued in an era when Davis was refining the small-group language that would define his late-1950s work, it stands as a strong example of post-war modern jazz, with the album’s four-sided original programme and standout pieces like Dr. Jackle and Minor March giving it lasting appeal.
