Review by Christina

The Izar Melting Pot Ensemble's album, The Melting Pot, is a captivating fusion of various musical styles and cultures. The band's ability to blend jazz, Latin, Middle Eastern, and African rhythms is impressive, creating a sound that is both unique and refreshing.

The album features a range of instruments, including saxophone, percussion, guitar, and keyboard, each played with skill and precision. The compositions are complex and dynamic, with each song taking the listener on a journey through different moods and emotions.

One standout track is "Sahara," with its hypnotic beat and haunting saxophone melody. The song transports the listener to the vast expanse of the Sahara desert, evoking a sense of mystery and wonder.

Another highlight is "Bazaar," a lively and energetic piece that captures the bustling atmosphere of a Middle Eastern marketplace. The use of traditional instruments, such as the oud and darbuka, adds an authentic touch to the music.

Notes

  • From liner notes:
  • On this album Izar Melting Pot plays both catchy and complex medieval and Middle East compositions a.o. from an approximately 600 years old Italian source, the French medieval source 'Manuscript du Roi' and from Arabic traditions. To this the ensemble adds melodies from Nordic folk music and mixes it all with a strong element of improvisation.
  • Recorded in Blaagaards Church, Copenhagen, November 2014.
