Jan Garbarek is increasingly developing into a star of the jazz music. His recordings with the Hilliard Ensemble are among the best-selling works of the jazz / classical range. Have to make it through his fragile paintings listeners to impress far beyond the normal level. He actually only paints moods with a quiet, partly meditative mood that guided his saxophone, performed, be determined. In his 1993 published CD "Twelve Moons" (whose subtitle could be denominated "one mood"), he presents 10 of these pieces described above - and reap as much the price of the German Record Critics. One can even say rightly, but the way that Garbarek has broken since this period is simply too straight, the albums somehow interchangeable. I like the music very well, but it really is only suitable for a certain, slightly melancholic mood that one must possess in order to let fall for all the pieces. As background music, they will quickly annoying as the superficial listening experience no real change occurs. (This is an Amazon.com at the university-student review.)
