| Greek
sax and clarinet player Floros Floridis comes up with a new
CD on ANO KATO, accompanied by ex-Yugoslavia´s most
famous musicians Milos Petrovic on piano and Velco Nicolic
or Papa Nick on percussions and voice.
As George
Charonitis wrote (Jazz Magazine): “The music on this
CD speaks an international dialect and addresses the listener
in the same international manner, with songwriting and dance
forms that cover a wide range. It is at the very point where
contemporary jazz originates from the best qualities that
spring from the body of popular music. … Petrovic´s
piano is narrative, tracing its base from the entire jazz
heritage. Papa Nick´s percussion also carries a long
tradition with it. As for Floros Floridis, he creates a
different story with every instrument: He captures a historical
flexibility on the clarinet, he retains the maximum jazz
inventiveness on the soprano sax, his bass clarinet playing
is particularly sensitive. Every piece leaves a sense of
fulfilment behind…
Listen
to ´May´, feel the moving and proud voices of
the instruments on ´Oh, my life´, try to catch
the rhythms in ´Moving wagon´, and you will
understand why this edge of the world, the Balkans, never
stop growing free spirits and sensitive people.
