The 18 albums Amina Figarova released to date have made her one of the most admired composers in jazz. … The voices are neither sweet nor soothing, There are clamorous and jubilant …. It sound like love become music.
Hailing from Azerbaijan, the New York-based Amina Figarova is an internationally influenced—and recognized—composer, pianist, and bandleader. Those three roles come to the forefront in Figarova’s sextets, bands with a remarkable chemistry that brings her detailed arrangements to life. Every member of the group stands out as a first-rate individual, but their dedication to Figarova’s eclectic and powerful compositions gives this group its depth of feeling and elite status. The Amina Figarova Sextet has been a hit at major festivals like the Newport Jazz Festival and New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival
Suite for Africa is Amina’s 18th album, all with original compositions by Amina. The music we are playing currently is instrumental tracks from the album Suite for Africa and songs from her album JOY.
