It explores my "reimaginings" of Bach pieces in a variety of jazz styles. The pieces themselves dictated where the arrangements would go, and not only the essence but the integrity of the original pieces remain intact. Original riffs and new musical sections are in the mix, but none of the original music or structures were removed. The settings, styles and grooves are different, but, at least in my mind, are already suggested by the music itself, even if those wouldn't exist for hundreds of years. We're very excited about this release, a companion to Bach XXI, featuring my trio with acclaimed violinist Philippe Quint, on Avanti Classic. We unfortunately don't have any video yet for this project. However, I just found this video of my trio performing my Polonaise Libanaise at Jazzfest Bonn in 2016, part of my then-nascent program of original arrangements of pieces by Chopin, including the entire Sonata no. 2 in Bb minor, op. 35. We will record this album in early 2021 for release either that fall or in spring of 2022. In the meantime, click here to see this performance to catch a glimpse of what's in the pipeline!
