Carsten Pieper Chamber jazz meets classic strings... Sounds boring? Well, not in the least! I've never been to the Lake District, that inspired this wonderful album, but it has to be quite a breathtaking region!

Tim Garland once more proves himself not only as a great player (tenor and soprano sax) but even more so as a composer/arranger (and conductor).

And to honor the fine playing, the flac comes in 24 bit glory :-) Favorite track: Rugged Land.

English Session Orchestra 35 piece string section

Recorded at Abbey Road Studio 1, London
All music by Tim Garland

Weather Walker, the monumental, atmospheric and unfailingly melodic new orchestral album from one of Europe’s most prolific composers and instrumentalists, Tim Garland, takes its inspiration from The Lake District in the North West of England. Tim is a musician with equal talent and scope both as a performer and composer and Weather Walker showcases his sheer brilliance and ambition, confirming his reputation as one of contemporary music's most forward-thinking figures. Recorded at the iconic Abbey Road Studio 1 with a 43 piece string section, this epic production contains some of his best large ensemble writing. Uniting his regular collaborators, pianist Rebello and bassist Gabolev, with a 35 piece string orchestra, Weather Walker is also a first-time collaboration with the exciting and progressive German pianist Pablo Held, a musician with an equally strong sense of harmony and freedom of expression.

For Weather Walker, the inspiration came from the Lake District, as Tim explains: ‘It was at the Lakes that I first had the sensation that it is us, human beings, that nature permits to live here, and not us permitting and cultivating nature where we choose to allow it! I’ve felt this in lots of places around the globe since then, but because this is my home country and early memories linger, The Lakes, which has a melancholy beauty even throughout the cold grey months, remains magical. Given the inspiring visual setting of this music, it is naturally cinematic’.

I have been searching for jazzy music similar to "ambient jazz ensemble" I finally found it. sweet jazz, with electronic trip hop downtempo elements. I've listened to all the albums, and this one is my fave. it's impossible to pick a favorite, but it would either be, Juniper, hyperloop, crossings, or eight days lol. MajikDan

September 2018. It's July 2020 now. I'm feeling that's too long, y'know..? This stuff's addictive. You just have to get more of it. The composition and performance on show are in a class of their own. But I say that every time. This is jazz like nothing else. Peter Jones
