BIRTH OF THE MYSTERY Dreamlandrecords 2010 The very active saxophonist Muriel Grossmann, resident in Ibiza, returns to the arena with the same strength like in her previous albums: an brilliantly exploratory music, with spinning melodies, insightful, they advance unshaken on an explosive rhythm; an authentic shock. The detailed sound of her alto fits with mastery with the traveling phrasing of the guitarist Radomir Milojkovic, the discreet tone of bassist David Marroquin and the light attacks of the drummer Marco Jelaca. This work is a courageous proposal, tender and elegantly avantgardistic, which many would like to see touring live, but unfortunately, that is not too lavish outside the Balearic Island. (Marti Farre, Jac 37 / abril, mayo 2011) ------------------------ SUDDEN IMPACT Dreamlandrecords 2009 Saxophonist of austrian origin, Muriel Grossmann, is certainly a rising star of European free jazz. She offers us today a trio with guitarist Radomir Milojkovic and bassist Chema Pellico. Free jazz, of course, but turned away from energy breaking into introspective chants, taking shape with the will of free time. Listening, in fact, remains the unifying element of music: each of them take time to lend an ear to play with each other: Listening and reverie. The improvisations are emerging in hushed environment felted like a picture of art , the fuzzy compete with the sharpness. The sound of alto saxophone Muriel Grossmann is both full and incisive and tender, like the play of the guitarist ,who distills his notes by clusters, with a predilection for pizzicato that he beads like a necklace of pearls. Curiously, and against the tide maybe, if this free jazz is a free music through its vital essence – by its spontaneous form and abstraction of harmonies - it is not by the overall sound of the trio: each musician consciously avoids the clichés specific to their instrument through the history of New Thing: no hoarse cry on saxophone, no parasite sound on the bass (strings, just the strings), no noisy experimental electric guitar. A sort of free jazz...of velvet...Marc Sarrazy, Impro Jazz Magazine, france, 2010 ----------------------- QUARTET Dreamlandrecords 2008 …Jazz album with all the letters, proposing rigorously intelligent things. The great touch of Grossmann, who without being heterodox, includes elements and imputs that enrich the whole. German Lazaro, Quadernos de Jazz, Madrid, Jan/Feb 2009. ------------ Enigmatic compositions in the hands of a luxury saxophonist.
