Marcin Wasilewski: US and Canada in June

[GA Russell]

Marcin Wasilewski piano; Slawomir Kurkiewicz double bass; Michal Miskiewicz drums “Marcin Wasilewski's piano playing is lyrical at heart, building from simple melodies and incorporating indirect shades of gospel. Bassist Slawomir Kurkiewicz has a way of getting in and around the center of the music without crowding it or being obvious; Michael Miskiewicz's brushwork is the very definition of lush, probably contributing as much to the misty feel of the music as Wasilewski's predilection for pedaling.”   -Nils Jacobson, Allaboutjazz.com “This all-acoustic, piano-trio disc boasts pristine sound and impeccable playing…”   -Geoffrey Himes, Washington Post IN CONCERT June 17 - Baltimore, MD at An Die Musik Live! June 19 - New Haven, CT at University Theatre - International Festival of Arts & Ideas June 22 & 23 - New York, NY at Dizzy’s Club Cola June 25 - Ottawa, ON at Ottawa Jazz Festival June 26 - Vancouver, BC at Vancouver Jazz Festival

The trio's performance in Vancouver last night was outstanding.

I wish they could have played in Northern California but I guess it wasn't possible.  The venues are drying up.  Whatever the reason, ot's a shame.  I could buy the cd.
