Peter McEachern - Code 2 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The jazz quartet 2in2out was founded by saxophonist Nela Dusova and guitarist Jan Lacina, who are also the authors of the band's modern jazz repertoire. The duo invited drummer Adam Sikora and now also Slovak double bassist Peter Korman. In recent years, 2in2out has managed to develop from an originally student project into one of the most interesting Czech jazz acts. In 2024, the quartet will it's debut album, Living Stories. The album was created in collaboration with long-time bandmates, double bassist Klara Pudlakova and drummer Adam Sikora. Living Stories presents a view of the world through the eyes of two jazz artists and authors with different aesthetic approaches, yet united in their musical narrative.InchWhat I appreciate most about 2in2out's compositions are the original ideas, interesting formal solutions and also the overlapping of content, which is far from always commonplace in modern jazz today, and I would dare to say that it is often lacking.Inch David Doruzka, leading Czech guitarist and pedagogue Album Tracks 1. Something Given 2. Maniny 3. Amorfa 4. Over the Abyss of Betrayal 5. Brezen 6. Jimurt 7. K Labutím 8. Normal People 9. Pohádka Pro Margi 10. Soon

(2-CD set) When guitarist Peter Leitch heard the diagnosis of stage 4 lung cancer in 2012, and the grim prognosis of 11 months to live, he made the hard choice of undergoing potentially career-ending treatment rather than succumb to the disease. Eight years later, thanks to his indomitable spirit and a brilliant oncologist, he is still live-unable to play his instrument but still driven to create music. Peter has re-invented himself as a composer, arranger, and director of a 14-piece orchestra. Celebrating this transformation, he has released New Life, the Peter Leitch New Life Orchestra's debut recording, Jazz House 7006/7. InchAfter coming to terms with the loss of the use of my left arm as the result of the chemo and radiation,Inch Peter says, InchIt occurred to me that I was free from the tyranny of the jazz guitar-of having to practice every day. I realized I could create music that was not limited to four fingers on six strings. I began to write.Inch Over the next two years, Peter composed, arranged, and orchestrated the 17 pieces that comprise this two-CD set. Encouraged by his friends and the success of a series of jazz club performances, the band went into the studio! Listeners will find a distillation of Inchall the music I've ever heard-from hard bop to rural blues to more modern abstract elements.Inch Album Tracks 1. Mood for Max (For Dr. Maxim Kreditor) 2.

From the first track's uncanny and authentic evocation of WR to it's thrilling concert cuts, InchOn CallInch is the album fusion fans have been waiting for. Plus, it swings & sounds great.
