Uri Caine
Bill Frisell
Classical and jazz pianist Uri Caine returns to his seminal recordings of Bach’s Goldberg Variations Thus 2 NovGrammy-nominated pianist and composer Uri Caine uses classical music as a ‘springboard for improvisation’. His collaborations extend from the Beaux Arts Trio to John Zorn and from the Woody Herman Band to the Moscow Chamber Orchestra. In this rare UK solo concert, he returns to some of the seminal recordings he made of Bach’s Goldberg Variations, as well as reimaginings of pieces by Mozart and Mahler, mixed up with jazz standards and his own original compositions.
In the course of a single piece….Caine's playing is alternately delicate and reflective, then vivid; vibrant; careening though never chaotic. — BBC Music Magazine
