The bassist has a real talent for creating modern works that balance expertly between new and old-school forms of expression… deeply melodic forays and from-the-heart blues occupy the same space, unconflicted. – Bird is the Worm. Antwerp bassist, Piet Verbist, has been a central figure in the Belgian jazz scene for decades. With his 5th album on Origin, Verbist turns to the guitar trio format and rekindles his long-time connection with guitarist Hendrik Braeckman, a regular with the Brussels Jazz Orchestra and a fellow force in modern jazz circles. Along with the creative interplay from drummer Lionel Beuvens, the trio unravels an intimate set of originals – along with Charlie Parker’s “Cheryl,” and Monk’s “Pannonica” – building broad atmospheres of color, groove and mood. “Verbist’s compositions… give compelling testimony to the ways musical friendships can last a lifetime-and how serendipity, inspiration, and a deep dedication to the music can create a spark when friends’ paths do eventually cross.” – DOWNBEAT
