Description:

Mirror of the mind, projected memories of encounters. This is a collection of original works by Nakajima Jin, a bassist living in Azumino, who has further advanced his unique world view. World-renowned tenor saxophonist Ove Ingemarsson joins him! A mirror of the heart, a projected memory of a chance encounter. The second leader album by bassist Jin Nakajima, based in Azumino, Shinshu, Japan, following "Pioggia"! The mix of the nature of Shinshu Azumino and the essence of European jazz heard on his first album "Pioggia" has been carried over to this album, further advancing his unique sound with his own aesthetics. The members are Shinichiro Mochizuki (pf), who stunned the Japanese jazz world with his "Trio2019" with Miroslav Vitous (b) and Shinya Fukumori (ds), and Manabu Hashimoto (ds), who is trusted by many musicians in Japan and active in non-genres, continuing from the previous album. All nine tracks on this album are original compositions written by Nakajima and the participating members.In addition to this irrepressible trio, Ove Ingemarsson, a world-class tenor saxophonist from Sweden known for his work with Lars Jansson and Urs Wakenius and his work with the Bohuslein Big Band, one of Scandinavia's leading bands, guested on four songs on this album. In addition to his excellent fit with the trio sound, his overflowing imagination greatly expands the world of the songs.
