To record the work based on Joseph Brodsky's poem "Nature Morte" Simon
Nabatov has assembled an extraordinary ensemble: Phil Minton - voice, Frank
Gratkowski - reeds, Nils Wogram - trombone, Simon Nabatov - piano. As Stuart
Broomer writes in his notes: "Simon Nabatov's "Nature Morte" is a miracle of
craft and vision, a rare synchrony of parts in which text, composition and
improvisation are heard as essential complementaries." Simon Nabatov has
arrived. There is no question this CD will stand the test of time and make
jazz history.
