KSJAZZ is proud to announce a new exciting release from Finnish pianist/composer Aki Rissanen entitled "Beautiful Anxiety". The CD features tenor saxophonist Rick Margitza, trumpeter Magnus Broo, bassist Antti Lötjönen and drummers Ville Pynssi and Olavi Louhivuori.
This is how Aki Rissanen describes the new release:
"The material on the album falls into a category modern mainstream. There are echoes from northern lyricism as well as from more rhythmic American jazz tradition. In addition one can surely hear glimpses of my fascination in classical repertoire".
REVIEWS
"Eternal Echoes is an excellent new release - Five Stars."
--- Jussi Huolman, SuomiJazz.com
"Zakú is invigorating and, like the music of Ornette Coleman or Cecil Taylor, rewarding because of its exotic beauty."
--- Joseph Taylor, SoundStage.com
"Berger writes truly memorable tunes that give Wilson and the other musicians in the quartet, pianist David Budway and drummer Jeff "Tain" Watts, plenty to sink their teeth into. Berger himself is a tremendously rhythmic, expressive player, but it’s as a writer and arranger that he really makes his mark here."
--- Joseph Taylor, SoundStage.com
