Info for In Memory of...

“Clearly articulate, beautiful bass sounds by a musician who is in his late twenties. Dzsozi Blues is started with improvisation by Lakatos Pecek with a discreet drum accompaniment of Balázs Elemér. Then with a restless saxophone playing by Gábor Bolla, the trio submerge in hard bop. The composition written in memory of Géza Pecek Lakatos leads us in a peaceful world with the romantic playing of József Balázs. In the Free Will the band is expanded to quartet and play more freely. The Secret is like a ballad. Bach and Monk appear on the horizon, styles, moods and formations change constantly in the eight tracks. Lakatos Pecek Krisztián’s album is an eclectic but valid entry into the world of adult musicians.” (Gábor Turi)
