All About Jazz |
Faithful is an album by Polish jazz pianist and composer Marcin Wasilewski recorded in 2010 and released on the ECM label.
In JazzTimes Brent Burton wrote "Turn it up loud or turn it down low; either way, it’s one of the best piano-trio recordings you’ll hear this year".The Guardian critic John Fordham observed "Like their earlier ECM albums Trio and January, Faithful is predominantly pensive, but the trio are vivacious even while dreamwalking". On All About Jazz John Kelman noted "Wasilewski may be the titular leader, and contribute all the original material, but Faithful clearly relies entirely on the strength of a collective for whom lyricism is paramount, regardless of the context—direct and driven or implicit and suggestive, but always placing the whole as the objective beyond its individual contributing voices".
All compositions by Marcin Wasilewski except where noted.
