Live at the Village Vanguard is a live album by Paul Motian's Trio 2000 + Two recorded at the Village Vanguard and released on the German Winter & Winter label in 2007.[1] It features Motian’s trio with tenor saxophonist Chris Potter and double bassist Larry Grenadier, along with guests Masabumi Kikuchi on piano, and alto saxophonist Greg Osby.
The Allmusic review by Ken Dryden awarded the album 4½ stars, stating, "This is easily some of Paul Motian's most challenging music as a leader, while the Village Vanguard audience was obviously transfixed with the performances, as they remain very quiet to soak in every nuance of them".[2]
