Description

Hard-swinging New York sound with expressive lyrical components. The renowned saxophonist Andy Middleton elegantly combines the authentic flair of vibrant, contemporary jazz from the Big Apple with the legacy of melodic saxophone tradition. He shapes his broad tone from powerful intensity to delicate warmth, from lyrical beauty to rhythmic swing. He is a skilled storyteller, his solos are dynamic, and he phrases with a maturity and calmness that create landscapes of harmonic colors. Piotr Wyleżoł provides light and fresh dense harmonies, while Josh Ginsburg and Alan Jones drive with a buoyant rhythm.
Line-up: Andy Middleton: tenor/soprano saxes, Piotr Wyleżoł: piano, Josh Ginsburg: bass, Alan Jones: drums
