Rick Margitza давно уже рассматривают как один из «Молодых левов» международной джазовой сцене. Сегодня он является один из самых уважаемых музыкантов своего поколения. Отличный тенор и сопрано-саксофонист, в основном его вдохновили Джон Колтрейн, Майкл Брекер и Уэйн Шортер. Он сумел расширить и развить свой уникальный стиль, высоко поэтический но и резкий и точный.

Об исполнителе

Rick Margitza, who has long been regarded as one of the « Young Lyons » of the International Jazz Scene, is nowadays one of the most respected musicians of his generation. Excellent tenor and soprano saxophonist, mostly inspired by John Coltrane, Michael Brecker and Wayne Shorter, he has managed to expand and develop his unique voice, highly poetic and sharply incisive.
He started on the violin when he was four. His grandfather was a cellist and his father a violinist with the Detroit Symphony. He then studied classical piano for a bit, and also played oboe before switching to tenor in high school. He attended Wayne State University, Berklee, the University of Miami, and finally Loyola University in New Orleans, where he lived and played for four years.
Back then, Rick was touring with Maynard Ferguson and also Flora Purim and Airto Moreira. He then moved to New York in 1988.
That same year he joined Miles Davis' group and recorded three albums with them: “Amandla”, “Live around the world” and Live in Montreux. He then cut three sets as a leader for the prestigious label Blue Note during 1989-1991. Since 1994, his career found itself enriched with five more solo albums and collaborations with such artists as Maria Schneider, Chick Corea and McCoy Tyner.

Об альбоме

For this modern straight-ahead set, Rick Margitza (heard on both tenor and soprano) performs six of his challenging originals plus Embraceable You. The latter, whose melody is given some altered notes that do not help and make things sound sour, is a low point. However, Margitza sounds much stronger on his originals, particularly the boogaloo Hip Bop, the medium-tempo blues Forty Five Pound Hound, and the joyful At Long Last. His rhythm section is excellent (bassist George Mraz is particularly responsive to the saxophonist's playing), and Margitza sounds in prime form, showing individuality on both of his horns.
