Gueorgui Kornazov Brass Spirit Quintet

In this endearing album, Georgy Kornazov takes an interest in the country where he was born, Bulgaria. Through the rhythms exposed throughout the album, we enter into a jazz with remarkably worked ethnic flavors. Lyrical and lilting, festive here and there, at times almost melancholic, the music of Gueorgui Kornazov unfolds with beautiful amplitude. It must be said that the trombonist is particularly well accompanied by some of the cream of French jazz. The compositions sound like traditional music in which the Slavic soul flows with its contrasting colors. The replacement of the double bass by the tuba adds an interesting depth and density to the overall sound of the record. According to the leader, it is a musical work which explores the multiple facets of the musical scale of Ré, hence the title. One thing is certain, the work of the trombonist and his colleagues is rich in detail and his music is full of beautiful humanity.
