CD Reviews

Utterly Beautiful

Karl W. Nehring | Ostrander, OH USA | 07/07/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The first four cuts on January, "The First Touch" (Marcin Wasilewski), "Vignette" (Gary Peacock), "Cinema Paradiso" (Enrico and Andrea Morricone), and "Diamonds and Pearls" (Prince Rogers Nelson--yes, he of the unpronounceable symbol and buttless jeans) form a string of musical pearls that shimmer in the dark with brooding beauty. If those four cuts were the whole release, it would still be recommendable, but there's more, much more. Pianist Wasilewski, bassist Slawomir Kurkiewicz, and drummer Michal Miskiewicz play with great beauty and refinement. This is music that will take your mind and your heart to a beautiful place."

Best of 2008: 5 stars

Busy listener | Italy | 08/14/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Definitely one of the my favorite albums of 2008. If you only buy one piano-trio jazz album this year, buy this one. The arrangement of "Diamonds and Pearls" is a master class in jazz and truly beautiful."

"Beauty beyond description"

S. Pettis | Seattle, WA | 09/24/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Some other reviewer commented "beauty beyond description" and all I can do is echo this sentiment. This is a very cohesive recording. One song flows effortlessly into the other but holds your attention. I also find that I just feel better during and after I listen to this record. This is a desert island CD for sure."
