“The Israeli-born pianist Anat Fort's second CD with her trio is turbulent but spare, knife-edged but tender, brimming with melodic hooks that loop in sinuous shapes and a slightly klezmeric insouciance”. Fred Kaplan, Slate magazine’s 10 best albums of 2010 "Anat Fort will be one of the great voices of modern jazz of the 21st century. She is already among the most creative writers and most elegant performers of the past decade". Andrea Canter, Jazzpolice "Wang and Schneider have been playing with Fort for a decade, and are consequently in tune with the pianist's, anticipating each other at every turn to form one of the most perfect trios since Keith Jarrett got together with Jack DeJohnette and Gary Peacock". Hrayr Attarian, All About Jazz "Sometimes a jazz musician appears on the scene with a recording that is both so unique and so well-crafted that you wonder where he or she has been all your life"... Siddhartha Mitter, The Boston Globe "In Anat Fort’s music, I also hear an imperishable flavor of ninguns and, as Dizzy Gillespie used to say, the endless, flowing music of the universe". Nat Hentoff, Jazz Times “Fort is a real discovery, a pianist who’s absorbed her influences (Paul Bley and Cecil Taylor, along with Jarrett) and already has a clear identity as a composer”. Francis Davis, Village Voice |
