Enrico Pieranunzi

Those chasing fast-city lights might imply the hard-grooving world of jazz-rock. But look beyond, into the deepening vermilion Afterglow, to find a quite different fusion in this intimate set from the acoustic duo of Italian pianist Enrico Pieranunzi and Belgian trumpeter/flugelhornist Bert Joris.

Pieranunzi has recorded more than 70 albums under his name and collaborating with artists including Chet Baker, Lee Konitz, Paul Motian, Charlie Haden and Chris Potter, while Joris’s ‘roll call’ is just as stellar, working alongside names such as Clark Terry, Jimmy Cobb, Woody Shaw, Hank Jones and Joshua Redman. But in contrast to those multifarious jazz ensemble and orchestral projects over the years, this one-to-one connection feels like an opportunity to eavesdrop on an amiable get-together of like-minded creative spirits
