MAXIM LUBARSKY

“The Ukrainian-born, classically trained pianist Maxim Lubarsky is centre-stage on the idiosyncratic Interlude: Amingus Amonkus. It finds him almost stealing the show on a 12-bar sequence with a four-bar tag. It has a Thelonious Monk-like quality but without the dissonance, and his stride playing here is an added bonus.”
