- aka moon: the scarlatti book
(2015, cd, bel, outhere music out 658)
Belgian avant-garde jazztrio Aka Moon is best known for using complex rhythmic structures and for mixing jazz with world music.
Their latest journey was made on request of the Italian Cultural Institute of Madrid and had the trio plus pianist Fabian Fiorini explore the rhythmic and harmonic properties of Scarlatti's music.
Music inspired by Scarlatti's sonates.
I can only say this a couple of times each year, but "The Scarlatti Book" will most definitely be in my top five list of 2015.
Playful, energetic, modern jazz.
Superb.
Here's a flashback to 2011 :
