Orquestra De Jazz De Espinho / Eduardo Cardinho / Miguel Moreira – Dual Core – 2LP

The album starts with an electric hum and touches of vibraphone, but then the orchestra kicks in and all the elements become intertwined with the intricacy of the piece. We quickly feel the union and collective force that shines through in this piece, driven by the brilliance of the soloists. And if the soloists are the driving force, the orchestra, comprising two dozen members, is a well- oiled machine, which flows elegantly.

Given its immense musical history, there is a need within jazz to become obsessed with, and therefore attempt to reproduce its past. The Espinho Jazz Orchestra takes a more daring route, opting for a more contemporary orchestral Jazz, reflecting current times. This music is current and alive.
