Mezei, Szilard -tubass Quintet-
Rested Turquoise
Szilárd Mezei's 'Rested Turquoise' introduces a unique and captivating ensemble: four basses and a lone tuba, delivering a remarkable blend of melody, space, and Serbian folk influences. This unconventional setup avoids the usual challenges of muddled low-end sounds by focusing on infectious tunes and spacious arrangements. Mezei's ability to bridge avant-garde jazz, classical music, and folk traditions shines here, as each instrument occupies its own sonic space, creating clear, creative, and distinct layers. This releas is an intriguing and surprisingly accessible addition to Mezei's impressive discography.
