Review by André Jochem

The Espoo Big Band's Live In Montreux album is a stunning showcase of the group's exceptional musicianship and dynamic energy. Recorded at the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival, the album captures the excitement and passion of the band's live performances.

Featuring a mix of classic jazz standards and contemporary compositions, the album showcases the band's versatility and skill. From the swinging rhythms of "Take the A Train" to the soulful grooves of "Watermelon Man," the Espoo Big Band delivers a masterful performance that will delight jazz enthusiasts and casual listeners alike.

The album also features several standout solo performances, including saxophonist Mikko Innanen's virtuosic improvisations on "Stolen Moments" and trumpeter Jukka Eskola's soulful playing on "Cantaloupe Island." The band's tight arrangements and dynamic interplay make for a truly engaging listening experience.
