My review of violinist/singer Iva Bittovą's self-titled debut on ECM, today at All About Jazz.
Bittovą's first appearance on the label was with Vladimķr Godįr's Mater, but it turns out that, on this solo debut as a leader, she's a real storyteller, with music - improvised and composed - running the gamut from traditional folk music of her native Moravia to classical, and beyond...sounding like all of these things and none of them. Enigmatic? Perhaps, but a lovely, intimate and very, very personal debut.
Review here.
