Helmut Eisel & Sebastian Voltz Trio - Talking Sinatra (2014) [Hi-Res]

Frank Sinatra, this mystic charmer with the smoky voice, knew how to play his way to the gallery as a tightrope walk between the highs and lows - up one minute, down the next. What a pattern for the creative klezmer Helmut Eisel committed himself to the fascination of Sinatra in a truly unheard manner.

For „Talking Sinatra“ Helmut Eisel and the adventurous pianist Sebastian Voltz launched this exciting and unconventional band project. Driven by Mario Bartone’s bass and the vibrating drum set of Dirk Leibenguth Eisel & Voltz let bluster and fluoresce the Highlights of the 30s as much as the self-composed, rousing Klezmer-Swing-Mix with dense, instrumental combinations: erotic-red or jet-black, glare colours or deep blue, but always seriously addictive. The clarinet is hissing, lilting, sputtering and flickering in the rough Sinatra slang just to catch the listener in the very next moment with the sweetest melodies in show history. Highly emotional and easygoing…
