LUO NING 羅寧 - UNKNOWN JOURNEY JAZZ MUSIC IN CHINA (CD) MADE IN EU

The many facets of jazz music, with its ever-changing yet always pleasant melodies, have earned this unique musical genre popularity around the world. Jazz pianist Luo Ning, who is known for his creative contributions to Chinese jazz music as well as his impressive live performances, has been involved in the jazz music scene for many years, and continues to impress audiences with his musical imagination and unique sound. On this compilation he has included songs from many different styles, showing his broad perspective on the world, viewing the leisurely yet somewhat melancholy tune of jazz from several perspectives. So just sit back, enjoy the endlessly changing rhythms, and let the words of the musicians take you back in time, and all around the world. This compilation draws on inspiration from various musical styles, and when listening, you’ll find that the rich and bold tunes are filled with more than simply the original charisma of jazz. This compilation is a collaboration among outstanding Chinese musicians, whose aim here is to add an eastern touch to jazz music, a distinctively western genre of music, infusing jazz with a new level of affection and rhythmic appeal. Cui Jian, known as the “Father of Chinese rock”, as well as many Chinese jazz musicians, all had a hand in the conception and recording of the compilation. A host of jazz artists from around the globe joined as well, creating a team full passion and curiosity, who enjoyed every moment of this international musical exploration. The Steinway & Sons piano used in the recordings was the leader of the musical assembly. The project was guided by producer Ye Yunchuan, known for his innovation and dedication to quality; recordings were performed by sound engineer Zhang Xiao’an, who is meticulous yet passionate; and at the helm of post-production was Stockfisch Records of Germany, bringing their own perspective to the recording sessions.
