José Caparros & Irokazu Ishida Quartet

Presented by Sunset (L-1017720-721-722) His trumpet sounded on tour alongside Lucky Peterson (which he hails here), Ricardo Del Fra 's, René Urtreger, Ralph Moore, Gary Smulyan, Bob Mar4n, and many others that we must quote hoping not to forget too much, They are all cadors: Greg Abate, Bobby Porcelli, Dominique Di Piazza, Siegfried Kessler, Philippe Petrucciani, Ahmet Gülbay, the brothers Christophe and Philippe Levan, François Laudet, Oscar Marchioni, Jean-Loup Longnon, Junko Moriya, Pierre Christophe, Michel Denis, ... Not to mention his friend Nicolas Folmer whom he meets regularly for two-triums exchanges. It is not the sideman we are greeting here but the composer – arranger – project leader. If he is not on his first try, José Caparros has signed under his name previously the album: “A Walk In Love”, here it is reached a new stage of its development. Taking News is the album of maturity. To follow him in the story he comes to count us here is a real pleasure. The natural melodist finds with his own repertoire to fully express himself, his purpose is luminous. The soloist puts his be bop to sleep for a poetic and reverent language. Clarity, emotion and musicality take precedence over the rest. Jean-Michel Proust
