Description
The music of the early 20th century French Avant-garde composer Erik Satie for a jazz album makes perfect sense, when its interpreters/performers are cornetist Kirk Knuffke and his long-time partner pianist Jesse Stacken.
They both share their musical background in unconventional new/free jazz as well as classical training. The Knuffke/Stacken duo has released a series of highly acclaimed albums with music by renowned composers of jazz.
"This is nostalgia made vibrant, played with precision, depth, good taste and a leisurely refusal to overcrowd its sonic space." - Martin Longley, All About Jazz (on SCCD31677 'Mockingbird')
Personnel: Kirk Knuffke (cornet), Jesse Stacken (piano)
