Fresh rhythms. Gorgeous melodies. A powerful yet full-bodied touch that pleasantly stirs the emotions of the listener. The origins of the rare and renowned pianist, Masaru Imada, are found heMasaru Imada has been active as a professional since the 1950s, and now has a career spanning 70 years. He has been at the forefront of music from hard bop to fusion, and has released more than 30 titles as a leader. He is one of the most famous and well-known pianists in Japan. His powerful yet full-bodied touch creates a sound that pleasantly stirs the emotions of the listener. His first album, Maki, can be said to be the origin of this. The performances by the trio and one-horn quartet are so fresh and beautiful. The carefully woven "Autumn Leaves," the dynamic "On Green Dolphin Street," the ambitious "Gad," the ballad "Maki" dedicated to his daughter, and the hot and cool "Sea Horse" all display his talent, from standards to originals. Released as part of Victor's "Japanese Jazz" series, this is an undeniable masterpiece. [text by Yusuke Ogawa (UNIVERSOUNDS / DEEP JAZZ REALITY)] |
