Andrea Vicari - Lunar Spell
|
|
Our Price: £8.99
|
|
|
Recorded in London in 1995, Lunar Spell is Andrea Vicari’s second CD, and won her a nomination for the BBC jazz awards.
"As her previous CD showed, Andrea Vicari is a composer of formidable range. She moves easily from complex ear-tricking rhythmic devices to a kind of pastoral lyricism while remaining recognisably herself...the variety of texture and colour (the band) are able to draw from this standard line-up is truly remarkable" Dave Gelly, The Observer

Andrea Vicari - Mango Tango
|
|
Our Price: £8.99
|
|
|
Andrea Vicari remains one of the most optimistic of contemporary pianists, with her jaunty piano style and rich and allusive writing which pushes into darker areas than initial gloss suggests. And for her 2007 album Mango Tango she has assembled one intriguing band.
"An absorbing CD - the sort you'll keep going back to.”
JazzUK magazine Feb 2008
