About
“An album that draws on the many influences that have formed John-Paul Muir’s increasingly individual and contemporary take on jazz…that is inherently beautiful.” - Nick Lea (Jazz Views)
“Beautifully honest, ‘Home Now’ unfolds gently with a vulnerability that lets the light in.” - Tara Minton (UK Jazz News)
Award-winning London based New Zealand pianist and composer John-Paul Muir presents his landmark new album 'Home Now', recently released on the Ubuntu Music label.
‘Home Now’ showcases Muir’s lyrical compositional style in a set of five pieces with expressive playing of both delicate beauty and overflowing ecstasy. The first three tracks feature a collaboration with lyricist Anjali Bhat, with Muir’s classical heritage coming to the fore in the impressionistic opener ‘Sunlight’, a captivating portrayal of a romantic encounter, whilst the title track explores the process of finding peace in the home within ourselves.
In addition to presenting 'Home Now' in its entirety, this show will also feature new trio arrangements of compositions from Muir's first solo album 'The Cornerstone Suite' (2019).
