Live in Japan
by the Christian Jacob Trio

In 2007 Christian was invited to tour and record in Japan. Christian always loved Japanese audiences, and to make this recording special, he chose four Japanese melodies that every Japanese person would recognize and arranged them for his trio. They were the highlight of the tour. Surrounding these four tunes are some of Christian s originals and well known standards. He brought with him his two longtime partners: Trey Henry on Bass and Ray Brinker on Drums, and the result is another well-balanced CD with a mix of sweet tenderness and raw burning jazz. This recording was made on October 12th, 2007 at the Tokyo TUC Jazz club.

Reviews One of the best CD's of the year, one of the best modern jazz piano trios of our time. ~Jazz Review Live in Japan presents the Christian Jacob Trio at its extemporary best. Those who admire piano trios should be advised that they don't make 'em much better than this. ~ All About Jazz
