Review by Андрей Гавришин

Cory Smythe's album Circulate Susanna is a masterful display of modern jazz piano. The album features Smythe's intricate and virtuosic playing, complemented by a skilled ensemble of musicians.

The title track, "Circulate Susanna," sets the tone for the album with its driving rhythm and complex melodies. The track "Commonwealth" showcases Smythe's ability to weave together multiple musical ideas into a cohesive and engaging composition.

Throughout the album, Smythe's playing is both technically impressive and emotionally expressive. His use of dynamics and phrasing creates a sense of tension and release that keeps the listener engaged from start to finish.

The album is also notable for its use of electronics, which are seamlessly integrated into the ensemble's sound. On tracks like "Circulate Susanna (Reprise)," Smythe's use of electronic effects adds an otherworldly quality to the music.

Summary by Андрей Гавришин

Circulate Susanna is a must-listen for fans of modern jazz piano. Smythe's skill as a performer and composer is on full display, and the album is sure to leave a lasting impression on any listener.
