REVIEWS

And perhaps I should add a remark on recent digital-only release Egin, pairing the two Rodrigueses & Masing in a quintet, this time with Tomo Jacobson on bass & Mia Dyberg on alto sax, neither of whom had appeared in this space previously: It's yet another appealing album, sometimes aggressive after starting on harmonics, and also apparently focusing on mental or emotional transition for the listener via a variety of evocations amid wave-like explorations of continuity — although it's rather short. I also feel compelled to note that it already appeared on Bandcamp the day after it was recorded, in Berlin, this month! Todd McComb's Jazz Thoughts

Tomo leads here a amazing quintet session with my 
beloved Portuguese string players: Ernesto and Guilherme 
Rodrigues, the father and the son. Tomo himself
 says: "There is no leader, there is only music", and, of
 course he is right, but I had to choose the entry for this
 album so I chose Tomo. The quintet includes also two
 Danes: Elo Masing on violin and Mia Dyberg on alto.
"Egin " is a 30 minutes long excursion into the land of
free... sonorism. Krzysztof Penderecki introduced this
 avantgarde direction in the late 1950s expressing the 
focus on the sound. "Egin" is a great example the same
 approach, but applied to the free improvised music.
 The disc contains one 30 minutes long track, that is
 a super controlled composition, but maybe to short to 
be upgrade to the ***** club.
It is quite complex and
 diffcult to classify. For me, because of the presence
of four bowed string instrument, it does smell like a
contemporary chamber music spirit. This is correct, but
 there are also connections to contemporary minimalism.
 Indeed it starts like a Kronos quartet's reading of a 
minimal music composition, but soon develops much 
more expressive moments and more varying and alternating
moods and spirits. In all that the alto saxophone
 sounds of Mia Dyberg and Tomo's explorations of the 
possibilities of the double bass are indeed extremely important.
 Excellent record from the first to the last note!!! Maciej Lewenstein

Recording live in Berlin at Werkhalle Wiesenburg, the quartet of Portuguese father/son string players Ernesto Rodrigues on viola, Guilherme Rodrigues on cello, Danish saxophonist Mia Dyberg on alto sax, and Polish double bassist Tomo Jacobson present a precisely controlled concert of subtly detailed free improvisation using impressive technique and momentum. Squidco

Autre album, autre ambiance avec Egin, sorti en 2019 et enregistré par un quintet formé pour l’occasion : la saxophoniste alto Mia Dyberg, le violoniste estonien Elo Masing, les Portugais Ernesto Rodrigues à l’alto et Guilherme Rodrigues au violoncelle et Tomo Jacobson.
Fruit de la collaboration entre deux labels qui cherchent : les Danois de Gotta Let It Out donc et les Portugais de Creative Sources, l’album comporte un seul long morceau (enregistré en concert à Berlin en octobre 2018), délicat et fragile où s’entremêlent les cordes vibrionnantes d’un quatuor qui ne dirait pas son nom et le saxophone minimaliste de Mia Dyberg. Pour l’anecdote, la jolie pochette de l’album est une peinture de la fille (deux ans à l’époque) de Tomo Jacobson. Julien Aunos (citizen jazz)
