Mike Gorman Trio • The Maze

 



The Maze is an acoustic piano-trio swinger from young Sheffield-born pianist Mike Gorman, with Jeremy Brown on bass and Matt Skelton on drums. It is pretty hard to make your own song on this much-travelled road, but Gorman has strong technique and a subtle touch. He also chooses a repertoire that is both in the tradition and a little off the track. The pianist gives a bright and effervescent double-time account of Charlie Parker's Quasimodo and a rolling (if slightly indecisive) Latin angle on Sonny Rollins's Airegin; he also suggests a potential for harmonic boldness and structural independence on a more personal If I Should Lose You. A disc that will probably get lost in a big crowd, but a developing local player worth keeping an ear out for.

The Maze es un trío de piano acústico swinger del joven pianista Mike Gorman, nacido en Sheffield, con Jeremy Brown al bajo y Matt Skelton a la batería. Es bastante difícil hacer tu propia canción en este camino tan transitado, pero Gorman tiene una técnica sólida y un toque sutil. También elige un repertorio que está tanto en la tradición como un poco fuera de la pista. El pianista da un relato brillante y efervescente en doble tiempo de Quasimodo de Charlie Parker y un ángulo latino rodante (aunque ligeramente indeciso) en Airegin de Sonny Rollins; también sugiere un potencial de audacia armónica e independencia estructural de una manera más personal si Te perdiera. Un disco que probablemente se perderá entre una gran multitud, pero vale la pena escuchar a un músico local en desarrollo.
