Eisenstadt, Harris

Woodblock Prints

Discover the album that transcends genres and defies categorization - an innovative masterpiece by drummer Harris Eisenstadt. This album combines composed jazz with a rich, low-sounding horn section, electric guitar, world music, and rock influences, creating a sound that's both warm and non-conformist. Imagine tight arrangements and wild excursions, a blend of western and eastern music, and a fusion of the familiar with the avant-garde. Eisenstadt's music is inspired by Japanese woodblock prints, yet it contrasts with dense, complex arrangements filled with warmth from the horn section. With a lineup featuring clarinet, saxophone, bassoon, French horn, tuba, electric guitar, acoustic bass, and drums, this album delivers compositions that are gentle yet powerful, refined yet expansive. This is more than just music - it's an exploration of sound that showcases true creativity, chiseling something entirely new from the tradition of jazz. It's an album you won't just listen to - you'll experience it, time and time again. Don't miss out on what could be the next addition to your collection of timeless albums like 'The Kingdom Of Champa' and 'Racines Du Ciel.' And trust us, these horns sound absolutely wonderful.
