Jazz
This is music for now, yes, but also for the future. Its scope is significant. Its craftsmanship assured. And if 2025 proves to be a year of renewal for composers like Hagberg, who could possibly complain?

Jazz
Chez Hagberg, la voix musicale, fluide, ample, enracinée, s’impose avec une telle évidence qu’elle ne cherche ni à s’imposer ni à se faire oublier.

Jazz
In an era increasingly defined by immediacy and noise, Rez Abbasi’s latest album stands as a luminous counterpoint, a project that listens as much as it speaks, that gestures inward rather than outward.

This is an album that will endure. Its staying power lies not only in the sheer beauty of the compositions, the lyrical craft, and the finely wrought arrangements, but in Green’s extraordinary interpretive skill.

À recommander aux amateurs d’un jazz sage, maîtrisé, sans surprises. Mais pour ceux qui attendent de la musique qu’elle remue, qu’elle ose et qu’elle bouleverse, cet album laissera sans doute un goût d’inachevé.

Jazz
Un album dont la dimension intrinsèquement contemplative n’obère jamais la profonde musicalité, servie par un jazz quartet sans œillères, mais n’en perdant néanmoins jamais les repères.

Jazz
Dès la première plage, The Big Room s’impose comme un enregistrement de jazz d’exception, un album qui semble instantanément intemporel. Ce n’est pas seulement un grand disque. C’est un disque essentiel.
