about

[Artwork: by "Lotiz"] This single release features New York Jazz Violist; Jim Nolet accompanied by the prodigical Jazz pianist Arturo O'Farrill“, Afro-Cuban percussionist Eddie Bobé, Darryl Hall on double bass, and Reggie Nicholson on drums. Having lived most of his life in Brooklyn, Nolet's culture of sound, especially in this recording speaks of the barrios and reflects his afro-cuban influences. Here, the mastery of Arturo O'farrill's and Nolet's rhythmic interplay with master percussionist Eddie Bobé is highlighted through the comping of volist's guajeos, and the pianist's montuno compás. This ensemble's recording is a perfect adventure of true jazz as; an influential fusion of blues, bop and latin musics.
Press:
Nolet swings passionately ….his playing is invitingly pretty”.
-Jazz Times
“As a composer and improviser, Nolet swings in a classically romantic way…holding form and content in high regard…fans are intrigued by the delicacy of his compositions.”
-The Seattle Post Intelligencer
“…traditional jazz, with a combination of grace, wit and nerve”
-The Washington Post
Jazz Pick: “Jim Nolet…ears will be opened, minds will be expanded and souls will be touched: Make them yours.”
-LA Weekly
“Jim Nolet has the agility and the dramatic coherence of straightforward jazz.”
-Jon Parales, The New York Times
