New Zealand bassist, composer and arranger Olivier Holland (who has contributed to or produced 23 CD albums to date) has engaged the crème de la crème of German jazz musicians for “Big Ticket”.
Here, four absolute virtuosos combine their distinctive sound and musical talent to create a sound portrait that is unparalleled in its uniqueness. "Big Ticket" sounds warm, powerful, and rich; the compositions—all penned by Holland—are lyrical, powerful, emotional, and expressive.
Everything comes together in a sound that, with a dynamic range from quiet to bombastic, must not just be heard, but experienced. A desirable CD album, certainly of great interest not only to jazz fans, but also to lovers of well-crafted and well-sounding music.
