Master tenor saxophonist and internationally recognized jazz artist Andres Boiarsky is pleased to announce a special concert to celebrate the release of his new solo album Crosstalk at Shanghai Jazz on Saturday, April 26th. Joining Andres will be Roy Assaf on piano, Curtis Ostle on acoustic bass and Tony Campbell on drums. Released on One Trick Dog Records, the album showcases an accomplished musician at the height of his craft. Crosstalk travels a wide emotional and musical spectrum ranging from straight-ahead jazz with a 70's flair, to world music born out of the unique synthesis of Boiarsky's years spent living in China and Latin America. From compelling originals such as the seductively immersive "Cool You!" or the vibrantly rhythmic "Instant Combustion," to distinctive interpretations of classics such as Chick Corea's "High Wire - The Aerialist,"Andres's refined style ties together an eclectic variety of genres and themes into a cohesive whole.
