The Chuck Manning Quartet 's new TCB (The Montreux Jazz Label) CD "Notes from the Real" was released in 2008. It features Jim Szilagyi on piano, Isla Eckinger on bass and Tim Pleasant on drums. The quartet will be doing gigs in Europe and North America to promote it.
Chuck is one of the busiest jazz saxophonists in Southern California.
He has been performing and recording for the past twenty-five years with many local ensembles and jazz artists in the L.A. area, across the country and in Europe. He is a long time member of the Los Angeles Jazz Quartet and co-leader of the Eckinger-Manning Quintet. The Chuck Manning Quartet was recently featured on National Public Radio’s "Jazz Set with Branford Marsalis". Chuck has recently recorded with drummer Alphonse Mouzon, and is a regular member of the Bobby Bradford Mo’tet, the Sal Marquez quintet and others.

“Essential listening for any local jazz listener. Manning is a fine inventive tenor player. With Joe Henderson as his baseline, he plays a gorgeous ballad, can blow some brilliant and slightly understated post-bop frenzy, and can lay out the bop lines fresh. His band is a great one, with Jim Szilagyi often matching him idea for idea. Drummer Tim Pleasant’s understated tapping and tippling and cymbal washes defy the written word. And this quartet’s unreleased album, Manning debut as a leader, is a great one.”

Hi Chuck, My new CD "Lemonade" is out and you can hear samples on my myspace page. First one in 10 years! I recorded it with Riner Scivally and Jerry Kalaf. It was a joy to record, we did it as a trio, live in a circle, without headphones. I hope you are well and congratulations on your ongoing success!
