Notes
Kapustin uses jazz as his musical language and then composes quasi-improvisations that sound as though they stemmed right from Oscar Peterson’s or Erroll Garner’s fingers. He is one of the few who were able to have the structures of composition and liberty of improvisation come together to such an organic whole.' After his first successful release with the piano- and double concerto of Russian composer Nikolai Kapustin (Capriccio C5437), Frank Dupree presents the original jazzy solo piano pieces of the still unknown master, enlarged with additional bass and drums. The genres of Jazz and classical music finally melt in a fascinating pure Jazz-Trio formation.
“.. a heady 68 minutes of music giving the impression – if you were listening blind – of a well-drilled jazz trio improvising on some favourite numbers of their own…”
Jeremy Nicholas – Gramophone magazine – March 2022
“… a very special album that sounds as if it were jazz standards performed in an intimate, small club. The atmosphere is pleasant and the music is, well, jazz. Or not? There’s really no denying the connection to classical music. Dupree plays in a way that is both elegant and tasteful. The trio ultimately succeeds in reviving the classical pulse that lies at the heart of this music. The idea of this CD is definitely welcome and very ambitious, especially since the trio has managed to deliver the compositions with many colors and moods in a very personal style, with great love for the original material and a seriousness of purpose that testifies to profound musicality.” ****
