My teacher have done some gigs with him, and can´t praise him enough.
I haven´t heard enough yet, though, but so far I like it. |

I have a CD of just the trio that is great, and than Stanko's Suspended Night as well. It's absolutely pure. I don't know many others who get a sound like this. |

I love Tomasz Stanko. I have his last three ECM discs: Suspended Night, Soul of Things, and From the Green Hill. I saw him live a year or so back, and it was amazing. His rhythm section is good, in that fluid Evans-LaFaro-Motian style.

Soul of Things is the only other one that uses the same group configuration as Suspended Night, though, so be warned. From the Green Hill is really interesting, IMO, because it matches Stanko with multi-reedist John Surman (the secret weapon in the ECM arsenal) and Argentinian bandoneon ninja Dino Saluzzi for a texturally delicious sonic exploration.
I would love it if Stanko did a record with Kenny Wheeler, who is his complete opposite as a trumpeter in terms of tone yet seems like he's working from a similar place as a player.
