XHOSA COLE QUARTET „FREEMONK" (UK)

"FreeMonk explores, abstracts and collages Monk's compositions, breaking his music out of convention and breathing new life into these timeless tunes."
_{(UK Jazz News)}

"Lustvoll zelebrierte Klänge mit stilistisch überraschendem Rhythmus-Ping-Pong und äußerst smarten Spielern. Wenn Musiker so natürlich und Ego-befreit aufeinander eingehen, hört man einfach nur genüsslich zu."
_{(Verena Göltl, Ö1 Jazznacht)}

"... for the past thirty years the UK jazz and classical world have had within their midst, hidden in plain sight, the most brilliant, burnished and flawless musical diamond these shores have ever produced. Pat Thomas is his name, a virtuoso pianist and electronics guru par excellence."
