Four Kats Jazz Quartet - Miaow (1995)


The Four Kats Jazz Quartet is probably the most remarkable example of this generation of daring, enthusiastic Catalan jazzmen who were then still quite young. The group was made up of musicians of truly exceptional quality, such as the versatile Oriol Bordas on vibraphone, Ignasi Terraza on piano, David Mengual on double bass and, from America, Jerry Moye on drums.

Oriol Bordas: Vibraphone
Ignasi Terraza: Piano
David Mengual: Double Bass
Jerry Allen Moye: Drums

10 tr.

Recorded in Barcelona, at the Albert Moraleda Studios, on Dec. 3, 4 and 5, 1995

Ignasi Terraza Trio - Jazz à Les Fosques (2009)

(click cover to enlarge)
The whole record has a diversity of proposals, very appropriate to be heard in different contexts, and one of the key pieces to approach the figure of Ignasi Terraza. Here we can find combined moments of great emotion and sensitivity in I remember Clifford- with others with a strong sense of swing –Love for sale- or the contrast of overflowing virtuosity -September song- with great restraint and control of the silence and medium tempos -Our love is here to stay. (Swit records)

Ignasi Terraza, piano
Oriol Bordas, drums
Manuel Álvarez, double bass

11 tr.

Recorded live at Café-Teatre del Teatreneu, October 29 and 31 1999, Barcelona.
