Simon Nabatov: Roundup
By Track review of "Sunrise, Twice"The pianist's cascading chord voicings and trickling right-hand patterns spawn a gradual shift to a faintly ominous vibe, treated with swirling choruses and rhythmic clusters. Underscored by trombonist Nils Wogram and saxophonist Matthias Schubert's dissonant contrasts, "Sunrise, Twice" morphs into an ascending deconstruction via extended notes and intersecting sub-themes. Finalizing the piece on a hauntingly harmonious note, this is just the beginning of Nabatov 's truly captivating endeavor, engulfed in a cavalcade of polyrhythmic perspectives and fascinating exchanges by the players. A masterfully inventive pianist, Nabatov drills his fluid thought processes and clever inventions into the broad realm of modern-day jazz and improvisation.
