JOEY CALDERAZZO SOLO

He is mainly known from the Branford Marsalis Quartet (that recorded the masterly DVD ‘Coltrane’s A Love Supreme Live In Amsterdam’ at the Bimhuis). Intensity, energy and boundless fantasy were always characterizing his play, but his solo album Haiku (Marsalis Music) shows that he became more subtle and sensitive through the years. ‘Haiku shows Calderazzo to be a pianist of technical precision, motivic invention, never-ending fascination with the instrument and artistic dedication.’ (JazzReview.com).
