Tomasz Stanko • September Night

 

Review from Jazz Journal (by Kevin Whitehead):
For many, trumpeter Stanko will always be associated with free improvisation, although he always retained a melodic element which singled him out from the pack. On September Night the music has structure, almost totally eliminating any nod towards more chaotic realms. All the compositions are Stanko's own, apart from Kaetano, a joint effort from the group which turns into a joyous romp, also displaying the trumpeter's prodigious technique. Many of the themes are taken down a Latinesque route, leading to a lot of genuine excitement which is barely evident in the audience response in this recording from Munich's Muffathalle. The trumpeter is at the top of his game from the opening Hermento's Mood where he unveils his natural lyricism, including half notes and impressive flurries. The following slower-paced Song For Sarah creates an equally impactful atmosphere, featuring the impressive empathy of the group and its undoubted creativity.

Resena de Jazz Journal (por Kevin Whitehead):
Para muchos, el trompetista Stanko estara siempre asociado con la improvisacion libre, aunque siempre conservo un elemento melodico que lo distinguio del resto. En September Night la musica tiene estructura, eliminando casi por completo cualquier guino hacia los ambitos mas caoticos. Todas las composiciones son del propio Stanko, excepto Kaetano, un esfuerzo conjunto del grupo que se convierte en un alegre paseo, mostrando tambien la prodigiosa tecnica del trompetista. Muchos de los temas toman una via latinesca, lo que lleva a una gran emocion que apenas se percibe en la respuesta del publico en esta grabacion de la Muffathalle de Munich. El trompetista esta en la cima de su juego desde el inicial Hermento's Mood, donde despliega su lirismo natural, incluyendo medias notas e impresionantes oleadas de notas. El siguiente Song For Sarah, de tempo mas lento, crea una atmosfera igualmente impactante, destacando la impresionante empatia del grupo y su indudable creatividad.
