The Arkadia Jazz All-Stars deliver a low-lit, elegant take on Duke Ellington classics, each note delivered with tenderness and grace. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 19, 2022
So many great pieces. Beautiful playing. Take "The Hard Balance", fabulous horn playing. Roman Filiu sounds like Wayne Shorter on Miles Davis’ Circle. Lot’s of quiet emotion here. I fully recommend this sweet creation. Gracias a Marta y todo el grupo. Espero que vengan a Seattle algún día.
Check out Dear Worthiness, what great alto work. Takes a great bandleader to get such subtleness. Marta reminds me of early Hancock with her lyricism. Solid pulsating bass and drums. rkburk
So much fun and joy and swing, and the instrumentation allows for some super-fresh sounds as well as some old-timey goodness. And simply great tunes too! Giles
