[NEW RELEASES] Eldar
Published: 21 Sep. 2009, 04:09
Virtue puts Eldar at the forefront of the contemporary jazz scene. The album is also a fitting follow-up to his 2007 Grammy-nominated album, “Re-Imagination.” Released this August, Virtue is a collection of thoughts and impressions of what the artist defines as “virtue.” The album balances his youthful energy with a new-found sophistication that mirrors his personal and creative growth. The first track, “Exposition” contains an impressive saxophone solo along with Eldar’s phenomenal piano technique. Tracks such as “Blues Sketch in a Cave” and “Blackjack” are also well worth listening to.
Whether you’re new to jazz, new to wine, or new to both, this album is sure to enchant your next romantic evening.
