Description:

Der Saxophonist, Komponist und Arrangeur Greg Yasinitsky grÃ¼ndete sein YAZZ Band-Projekt als Labor fÃ¼r seine zeitgenÃ¶ssischen, ursprÃ¼nglichen Big-Band-Kompositionen. Bestehend aus Ã¼berwiegend im pazifischen Nordwesten ansÃ¤ssigen Improvisatoren und Ensemble-Veteranen, spiegelt "New Normal" die Zeiten wider, in denen das Zusammenkommen als Gruppe keine Option ist. Aufgenommene Ensemble-Tracks aus der Zeit vor der Entstehung von COVID-19 wurden mit isolierten Aufnahmen von weit entfernten AuÃ?enposten wie Los Angeles, Baton Rouge und Italien kombiniert, wodurch einige dynamische neue musikalische Optionen erkundet werden konnten. Von den schmetternden "G.P." und "Diva" bis zum gefÃ¼hlvollen "Song for Laura" oder dem Funk von "Blues for Brecker" bietet Yasinitsky's YAZZ Band ein breites Spektrum an hart swingender und frÃ¶hlicher Originalmusik. -

Hard charging, high octane stuff that never let's you down, or even comes up for air, this is a must for big band fans... Killer stuff. - Midwest Record. Saxophonist, composer, arranger Greg Yasinitsky created his YAZZ Band project as a laboratory for his contemporary, original big band compositions. Made up of mostly Pacific Northwest-based improvisors and ensemble veterans, "New Normal" reflects the times when gathering as a group is not an option. Recorded ensemble tracks from before COVID-19 emerged were combined with recordings done in isolation from faraway outposts including Los Angeles, Baton Rouge, and Italy, allowing for some dynamic new musical options to be explored. From the blazing "G.P." and "Diva," to the heartfelt "Song for Laura," or the funk of "Blues for Brecker," Yasinitsky's YAZZ Band offers a wide ranging set of hard-swinging and joyful original music.

Tracks 1, 4, 6-8 recorded August 25-26, 2019. Tracks 2, 3, 5 recorded July-August 2020.
