Robinson de Montmollin - Arugula - Jazz Thing Next Generation, Vol. 103 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Parsley Sound's was the glorious debut album for Mo Wax by Parsley Sound. The album was one of the iconic tag's final releases before it closed in 2003 and locating a clean copy has been extremely tricky of late, unless you're flush enough to drop 150 notes on it. Mercifully, the Be With reissue, put together with invaluable assistance from the group, should remedy this situation.

The Leipzig bassist Andreas Pientka sets massive, monumental music in scene with his tentet on InchTiefe NachtInch (trans. Deep Night). Seven brass players - two trumpets, a trombone, a tuba and three saxophones - as well as a rhythm group composed of Pientka himself as well as the pianist Niklas Roever and the drummer Alex Parzhuber bring the music to life, and the flutist Camila Moukarzel-Ortega also intervenes occasionally in the action. Pientka actually composed this music for orchestra, but the Corona pandemic thwarted his goal and so he opted for this brass-heavy and much more jazz-inspired instrumentation. InchI had the feeling that brass players can more easily switch between classical and jazz and, above all, improvise,Inch Pientka said, who has ample experience with wind instrument movements from his time with the JugendJazzOrchester of North Rhine-Westphalia andthe BundesJazzOrchester.
