Consenting Adults is an album by MTB, a quintet consisting of Brad Mehldau (piano), Mark Turner (tenor sax), Peter Bernstein (guitar), Larry Grenadier (bass), and Leon Parker (drums).

Music and recording

[edit]

The album was recorded in New York City on December 26, 1994.[2] The first track, "Belief", "starts out with some Charleston off beats before leading into a Messengers-type shuffle."[3]

The album was released in 2000.[3] Mehldau commented that "it captured all of us when we were right at the beginning of developing our own voices."[4] All members of the quintet went on to be successful jazz musicians.[4]
