Jazz
This is the first solo piano recording by Pandelis Karayorgis - a project he has been working toward for a number of years. As Pandelis writes in his liner notes: "With the exception of one track -- 'Fink Sink Tink' -- the remaining sixteen all are pieces I have recorded and performed with other musicians, and it seems natural that a solo piano interpretation of this material would emerge from that work eventually". Half of this pieces are originals and half are standards.
Pandelis Karayorgis
Active Decades: '80s, '90s and '00s
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Avant-Garde Jazz, Post-Bop
Sentimental, sugary, fluffy, syrupy -- these are some words that won't hear in connection with avant-gardepost-bop jazz pianist Pandelis Karayorgis, whose playing has often been described as angular, cerebral, and abstract. Thelonious Monk and Cecil Taylor are his primary influences, although Paul Bley, Marilyn Crispell, Myra Melford and the underexposed Herbie Nichols are also valid comparisons. Born and raised in Greece, Karayorgis moved to Boston in the 1980s and attended the prestigious New England Conservatory (where he studied with well-known improvisers like pianist Bley and bassist Dave Holland). Karayorgis (who has often favored an inside/outside style of playing) remained in the Boston area, and has been consistently active on the Boston jazz scene (where he played with the Mandela Octet in the 1990s and often worked with violinist Mat Maneri). In the 1990s and early 2000s, the pianist recorded several albums as a leader or co-leader -- most of them on Leo.
