DESCRIPTION:\nIn a world obsessed with bottom lines\, Chris Minh Doky has c
 reated bottom lines that have perked the ears of jazz fans around the worl
 d. For more than two decades he has been recognized as an original master 
 of the upright bass. Technical brilliance delivered with personal passion 
 prompted DownBeat magazine to write: &quot\; ... there is a softness and c
 risp clarity that is very different from the sound others derive from the 
 acoustic instrument.&quot\; Though written several years ago\, those words
  remain valid today\, as you will hear on Doky's most recent album Scenes 
 From A Dream.\nDoky's rare ability to perform with ample portions of creat
 ivity and dynamism--either as a solo artist or sideman--consistently place
  him in the top-5 lists of reader polls around the world. Carrying on the 
 Danish tradition of spotlighting the bass as the lead instrument\, his dis
 tinctive styling of each note reflects his roots in American East Coast gr
 ooves seasoned with the lyrical traditions of Scandinavia.\nWhether fronti
 ng his own band or playing with the most prominent artists of the day\, Do
 ky's bottom lines always seduce you with their compelling approach. His un
 canny knack for being the music at times or complementing the group as a w
 hole made him an integral part of the Michael Brecker Quartet from 2001 an
 d the Mike Stern Band since the days Doky emerged as a player in the '90s 
 New York jazz scene.\nA knight of jazz became the latest honor for Doky af
 ter Queen Margrethe II of Denmark in 2010 made him a knight in the Order o
 f the Dannebrog for his contributions to the arts. Two years earlier the i
 nternational Ben Webster Foundation gave Doky its eponymous award for his 
 jazz accomplishments through the years.
