105.5 STO KOKKINO

Κώστας Βαξεβάνης - 105.5 Στο Κόκκινο - 17 Γενάρη 2022

Light Vibrations is the 5th cd of guitarist/composer Giorgos Tabakis and is released by Aux Music (May 2018).

In this cd, Giorgos is collaborating with virtuoso Takis Paterelis (soprano sax) and percussion expert Giannis Papagiannoulis (drums/perc), two of the most innovative musicians in Greece.

The outcome of their partnership is a special European jazz trio that has quickly earned the respect and enthusiasm of the audience in their concerts.

Giorgos' main interest in this project was to search for ways of playing his 7-string guitar that can provide an expanded harmony, multirythms and motion at the same time, allowing him to be in a dynamic interaction with the sax/percussion in their beautiful way of playing, in a trio without a bass.

The five pieces included in Light Vibrations are categorized as a tonal contemporary European jazz influenced music, with interesting themes and structures, space for improvisation and personal aesthetic direction.
