Fourplay (Friday through Sunday) A few years ago the lineup of this contemporary-jazz supergroup changed significantly, as Larry Carlton vacated the guitar chair, making room for another suave technician, Chuck Loeb. The shift has worked seamlessly, like the interplay among the rest of the band: the keyboardist Bob James, the bassist Nathan East and the drummer Harvey Mason. Given the timing of this run, expect at least a nod to the band’s 1999 holiday album, “Snowbound.”
