Description
WINNER - ARIA AWARD FOR BEST JAZZ ALBUM 2015
Barney McAll's new album is both a homecoming and the story of a remarkable journey - a sonic reflection upon the distance in miles and in music he has travelled since leaving Mooroolbark, Victoria in 1989.
Recorded shortly after McAll's return to his home country after 17 years collaborating with New York's finest, this album sees the composer-pianist joined by a superb band of Australian musicians and the legendary French percussionist Mino Cin lu.
'Mooroolbark' is an evocative series of tales gathered over years of travel and research, and the works exhibit diverse colours and influences ranging from gospel to Afro Caribbean styles. But anchoring the music is a distinctive compositional approach that is all McAll's own.
