Description
This is the follow-up to 2003's hugely successful 'Universal Syncopations'. Volume II explores a wider range of musical options than its predecessor, with choirs looming out of the mix while orchestral colours swirl around a shifting cast of modern jazz players. It features a stellar line-up that brings together some of the leading modern jazz soloists of the post-'fusion' era: Randy Brecker, Bob Malach, Bob Mintzer, Gary Campbell - all four making their ECM debuts. As always Miroslav's uniquely expressive double-bass drives the music forward with a central role in the group interaction.
'Universal Syncopations II', features music for ensemble, orchestra and choir composed, archived, arranged, directed, produced and engineered by Miroslav Vitous.
Personnel: Miroslav Vitous (double-bass), Randy Brecker (trumpet), Bob Mintzer (tenor saxophone, bass clarinet), Gary Campbell (soprano and tenor saxophone), Bob Malach (tenor saxophone), Daniele di Bonaventura (bandoneon), Vesna Vasko-Cáceres (voice), Adam Nussbaum, Gerald Cleaver (drums)
