The Dan Noseworthy Trio/DNT's debut disc
Live and at Great Risk
showcases eleven of Noseworthy's compositions performed in two trio formations.
Its nearly 73 minutes of music is split evenly between studio and live sessions.

The live tracks were recorded at one of Montréal's most beautiful and
prestigious concert halls, La Chapelle historique du Bon Pasteur.
It was a double anniversary concert, marking ten-year musical associations
between both Noseworthy & Tanguay, and Tanguay & Guilbeault.
Dan Noseworthy (guitar), Normand Guilbeault (contrabass)
and Pierre Tanguay (drums) celebrated the event with
a night of dynamic interplay served with both raw and subdued intensity.
The audience responded with a standing ovation.

The studio tracks were recorded at the sound lab of Rob Martins, which had remained
nameless until DNT entered the room and drew inspiration from a warning written
in large letters across the top of the track sheets in the technician's sound booth:
RECORDED AT GREAT RISK!
These sessions with Dan Noseworthy (guitar), Frédéric Alarie (contrabass)
and Pierre Tanguay (drums) were referred to by jazz great Sonny Greenwich as
"the best guitar thing I've heard this year"!

The musical performances captured on this disc demonstrate why the
Dan Noseworthy Trio/DNT
is one of Montreal's best jazz ensembles.
