Blue whisper (2015)/ Amina Figarova & Bart Platteau & Alex Pope Norris & Marc Mommaas & Luques Curtis & Jason Brown

Op 1 december 2017 in Jazzpodium De Tor, Enschede: "De pianiste en componiste woont nu, met fluitist Bart Platteau, in New York. Ze werd geboren in Azerbeidzjan, waar ze werd opgeleid tot klassiek concertpianiste. Maar haar grote passie jazz bracht haar op alle grote wereldpodia." \n\n""Blue Whisper" is her 12th recording as a leader, but her first to feature a band comprised primarily of US-based musicians, including her husband Bart Platteau. Despite the sea-change of personnel, Figarova's identity as a composer-pianist remains intact. Though she leads a relatively large ensemble capable of blasting through her soulful post-bop compositions à la Art Blakey or Horace Silver, she opts for a different, multi-hued approach. Her compositions are subtle and tuneful and often demand a measure of restraint from the soloists. Her arrangements are characterized by a delicate layering of instruments and voicings, with the trademark sound of Platteau's flute leading the front line."
