About the album

For his Criss Cross debut, pianist Misha Tsiganov presents a program of ten reimagined songs culled from both the Great American Songbook and the lexicon of post-bop hardcore jazz.

Born in St. Petersburg in the former USSR, and a New Yorker since the mid-90s, Tsiganov convenes a unit of virtuosos to animate his stimulating charts - trumpeter Alex Sipiagin (himself the leader of 10 Criss Cross dates and a participant on two by the collective group Opus 5) and bassist Boris Kozlov, both fellow sons of Russia, A-list tenor saxophonist Seamus Blake, and the kinetic drummer Donald Edwards.

As always music label Criss Cross offers solid modern jazz of the highest level
Jazzflits, 24-3-2014

On this album Tsanginov and his quintet of first-call New York players present a program full of love and respect for the history and tradition of jazz, but presented within a thoroughly complex and original modern idiom.
Jazzenzo, 02-3-2014

Tsiganov pulls history in his direction, altering the shape and scope of these pieces without abandoning what made each one so special in the first place.
