Departure is a collaboration between saxophonist Monik Nordine and bassist Phill Albert which grew out of a recording session in Nanaimo in the winter of 2008/09. The group is newly expanded to quartet format which includes Brent Jarvis on piano and Buff Allen on drums. Monik and Phill have written most of the material for the band, and while being a modern jazz group it has a very easy, relaxing feel to it. Monik is a veteran of the Monday Night Big Band in Victoria and The Pat Coleman Quartet, she teaches saxophone at Vancouver Island University and runs a big band on Salt Spring Island. Phill is a graduate of Vancouver Island University and is successfully launching his career as a freelancer. Brent Jarvis maintains an active performance schedule in Victoria and other parts of North America and recently opened his own music academy The Brent Jarvis Academy of Music. Buff Allen and Monik Nordine have worked together on numerous occasions, notably in the Pat Coleman Quartet. Together they are Departure!
