With the album The Reel, Germanpianist, organist and composer Matthias Bublath continues to develop his Eight Cylinder Bigband. The project combines the power and precision of the classic big band with contemporary influences from urban funk, hip-hop, and R&B, complemented by vibrant Latin rhythms. The music thrives on the ensemble's palpable joy in playing and the energy of a group that has grown together over many years.
