Standard Domain is Paul Carr's fifth recording as a leader. The session was done just before Christmas, 2011. Nine tracks in one day? The Houston native and mainstay on the Washington, D.C. Jazz scene was quick to acknowledge the challenge of recording this way: "You've got to be a little crazy, especially not rehearsing first. However, I have recorded all of my CD's that way and the trick is to have the right guys." Paul has done a lot of playing with bassist Michael Bowie and trumpeter Terrell Stafford. He's also played and recorded with Lewis Nash. The newest member of the ensemble is pianist Joey Calderazzo, best known for his work with Branford Marsalis and Michael Brecker. Standard Domain includes an engaging mix of the classic American songbook, Jazz standards, and one of Paul's own compositions, focusing on songs with memorable melodies because "they usually produce great development sections and great improvisions."
