Weekend Planet
-
Pat Metheny plays John Zorn; younger great guitarist...
Truly one of the greatest musicians on the planet (Pat Metheny, hailed by John Zorn) He's on a good road, and he's still moving (our younger, co-featured guitarist Gilad Hekselman, described in ‘The New York Times’)
-
June Tabor, Iain Ballamy, Huw Warren - 'Quercus'
It defies categorisation; all the songs tell stories. It is music that deserves attention (English singer June Tabor describing Quercus – a truly singular trio)
-
Mieko Miyazaki and Guo Gan - 'Nen Nen Sui Sui'
I’m willing to accept and confront differences, rather than looking for only similarities (says the Chinese half of our featured Sino-Japanese, French-resident duo)
-
Andrew Robson Trio (with special guests) - 'Songbook'
Our long history as a group allows us to take more risks within the music, because we trust each other (Australian saxophonist Andrew Robson, whose current trio began in 1993)
-
non-standard cello: Klaus Paier and Asja Valcic's 'Silk...
‘Fighting against’ established musical styles or formats? No, I never felt I was doing that (improvising cellist Ernst Reijseger - a key figure in this cello-centric edition)
