The quartet features familiar ECM musicians John Surman on soprano saxophone and bass clarinet, Kenny Kirkland on piano, and Jon Christensen on drums. Vitous is often associated with the deep jazz-funk of his 1976 album Magical Shepherd and his more free-oriented work, but here he delivers exceptionally refined and delicate contemporary jazz that represents ECM at its finest. From the double bass singing out in soaring, violin-like lines and the melancholy-filled acoustic piano and saxophone, to the richly expressive drums that surge and recede like waves, every element is flawless. Pure, one-hundred-percent ECM jazz.\u003cbr\u003eJapanese pressing released by Trio Records, with obi and insert.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA1: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/xsvxdiscott.xsrv.jp\/organicmusic\/samplemp3\/mp3\/20260730\/OMH26010841_a1.mp3\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSilver Lake\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA3:\u0026nbsp;\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/xsvxdiscott.xsrv.jp\/organicmusic\/samplemp3\/mp3\/20260730\/OMH26010841_a3.mp3\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eTrees\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eB2: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/xsvxdiscott.xsrv.jp\/organicmusic\/samplemp3\/mp3\/20260730\/OMH26010841_b2.mp3\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eFirst Meeting\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"organic music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53722912391392,"sku":"OMH26010841","price":2970.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0511\/8073\/2616\/files\/IMG_1405_b1ca44f1-d06d-4505-afa0-2e5215640fe6.jpg?v=1785293104","url":"https:\/\/organicmusic.jp\/en\/products\/miroslav-vitous-first-meeting-1","provider":"PHYSICAL STORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
