CIRCUM 009
By Adam Baruch
This is the debut album by the International Jazz trio WEI3, which comprises of German (of Indian origin) pianist Jarry Singla, Polish bassist Maciej Garbowski and French drummer Peter Orins. The album presents ten original compositions, five of which are by Singla, four by Garbowski and one is a sacral piece.
Although basically a classic
Jazz piano trio, WEI3 takes this format way beyond its typical modus operandi,
venturing deeply into modern Jazz with many degrees of freedom and spontaneity.
Although melody based, the music allows for exploration of different tonalities
and the use of electronics, although moderate, adds yet another dimension to
the proceedings. Some World Music influences are also present.
The individual performances by
these three musicians are spectacular from start to finish and their combined
talents create an ensemble sound, which is very challenging, intelligent and
deeply aesthetic, reflecting the best European qualities found in contemporary
Jazz
Overall this is a superb debut
effort, which emphasizes the endless possibilities for Jazz to constantly develop
and conquer uncharted territory. The greatest asset of this album is the fact
that the music is very advanced and challenging and yet seems to be perfectly
acceptable by the vast majority of Jazz listeners, making it an excellent tool
to develop the understanding and love of non-trivial music. Wholeheartedly
recommended!
