"The Way To Olympus" by The Moscow Chamber Jazz Ensemble Cadence, active in Moscow during the final years of the Soviet Union. This album, by classically trained musicians, fuses the precision of chamber music with the improvisational qualities of jazz at a high level. Characterized by tight ensemble playing, structured developments including odd time signatures, and restrained lyricism, the album is permeated with a sound that emphasizes structural beauty and tension over flashiness. The album exudes the nuances and intelligence unique to Eastern European jazz, making it a fine example of an evolutionary jazz style distinct from Western fusion. A fine work that deserves quiet appreciation. Highly Recommended!
