JazzWithBobParlocha.com's Review
It's comforting to know that interesting new jazz players are cropping up all over the world. Pianist Sila Cevikce was born in Ankara, Turkey. She studied classical music, but as a teenager became intrigued with jazz. On this, her first release as a leader, she performs with Rich Perry on tenor, Ari Hoenig on drums and two new names for me: Adam Armstrong on bass and Kim Bock on tenor for two of the eight tracks. It's a very potent quartet/quintet playing very interesting tunes. The only "standard" is Frank Loesser's "More I Cannot Wish You". All the other tunes are by Sila. This CD is not only good for listening, but also comforting because it gives me the feeling that the future of jazz is in good hands.
