Zacharias Tarpagkos & Galan Trio: Embrace

Playing a rich flute, Zacharias Tarpagkos joins up with the Galan Trio of Babis Karasavidis/vi, Marina Kolovou/vcel and Petros Bouras/p for a lovely collection of chambered jazz. The composers are all modern, ranging from a Bartokian Ilan Chouraki for a dramatic “George In  Parris” to a playful “Humoresque” by David Hartynuik. Tarpagkos’ flute floats happily on a lovely “In The Light Of Greece” and ruminates with the strings on “Wallingford: Work, Worry, War” while getting a bit elliptical with Bouras on the chiming “ Spring On The  Ladoga”. Pastoral pleasures.
