Radical Jazz Standard Quartet just released the album, which contains acoustic free jazz take on some jazz standards. It's good the originals are named by titles :) |

Japanese pianist Masako Ohta (resides in Germany) duets with German trumpeter Matthias Lindermayr, just released, are dreamy and romantic. Something for fans of ECM music, far not so refined, but more lively though.
