about

Sound Liaison returns their 15th release featuring Blue Note recording star Denise Jannah with the Gidon Nunes Vaz Quartet. Gary Giddins from the Village Voice says “Quite simply, Denise Jannah is one of the best jazz singers to come along in the 25 years I’ve been writing about music.”

This is a typical Sound Liaison release, here captured live in studio 2 at Hilversum’s MCO, with recording, mixing, and mastering by Frans de Rond.

The initial recording was transferred to a Studer A80 tape machine at 15ips. Why? The answer is that ‘it gives us a bit of what they call ‘Mojo’.

Definitely an audiophile recording, then, but with a sense of humor, and the result is spectacular, with a warm, generous ambience you can almost reach out and touch each instrument. Gidon Nunes Vaz’ trumpet, Timothy Banchet’s piano, Thomas Pol’s bass and the drums of the splendidly named Yoran Vroom lovingly captured. Denise Jannah’s vocals on four of the tracks are simply gorgeous.

The result is a gentle, measured and totally appealing set.
