LARGO
Largo:
“Like a storm that breaks over the ocean, the sound of thunder a fraction behind the lightning, it washes over you, consumes you and leaves you electrified…”
Largo:
Gast Waltzing (trumpet & composer), Rainer Kind (Drums), David Laborier (Guitar), Thomas Bracht (piano), Romain Heck (Bass)
Their music is electric, a powerful collection of groove driven pieces infused with elements of various music influences, masterfully weaved into a gripping contemporary sound. One of Largo’s new tracks is called MMMM, short for Miles Meets Marcus Miller (…in 2009), a title that perfectly captures the direction in which Largo tempts it’s audience. Having premiered the new set in February to an enthusiastic crowd at a secret gig, the band has already won critical acclaim from the jazz community and the wider audience.
With 2 albums released on Warner Jazz, “Fables of Lost Time” (2003) and “Long Journey” (2005), the band has just recorded their third album, out later this year (2009)
