Vitalii Kyianytsia Jazz Trio
«Expressions“
FEAT: TOM BERKMANN-MATHIAS RUPPNIG

SPECIAL GUEST: Ori Jacobson

Das Internationale Trio aus Berlin präsentiert die Stücke aus bevorstehendem Album „Expressions“. Das Program des Abends besteht auch aus Arrangements von klassischen Stücken. Das Trio charakterisiert sich als „atemberaubend und explosiv“.
Die Balance zwischen Freiheit und Struktur wird in diesem Trio hervorragend gehalten, und die Stücke, die Kyianytsia für seine Band komponiert hat – beeindrucken durch ihre harmonische Raffinesse und ihre opulenten Melodien. Zum Abschluss spielt das Trio einen virtuosen „Expressions“, der einem fast den Atem verschlägt.

Already at the first listening it is noticeable that the music moves stylistically confidently between freedom and structure, new music and jazz, tradition and modernity – also on paths that have not yet been taken.

The balance between freedom and structure is … brilliantly balanced, and the pieces … impress with their harmonic finesse and their opulent melodic bliss.
Pianonews
On „Last Day Of Spring“, whose repertoire is characterized by the leader, he convinces as an extremely versatile musician with a strongly pronounced sense for structures.
Jazz’n More
This is jazz trio art without hypertrophy of a musical know how or ability, but simply the finest form of chamber music interaction between „freedom and structure“ on the field of this traditional music of piano, bass and drums.

The genius of the performers is not shown in the showmanship, but in the concise, unforced playing.

Strong debut album of Ukrainian pianist Vitalij Kyianytsia.
inMusic
The most refined variant in terms of craftsmanship is delivered by the VITALII KYIANYTSIA TRIO and its „Last Days of Spring».

And this leads to the fact that one experiences the music as a commonality, always surprised by some spontaneous insertions, which remind of the great jazz tradition as well as include modern influences.
