Jan Garbarek Group, "Twelve Moons" - CD izdevums. ECM Records.

 

Twelve Moons is an album by Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek recorded in 1992 and released on the ECM label. The title track "Twelve Moons" includes extracts of music composed for the short film A Year Along the Abandoned Road.

 

Twelve Moons was Jan Garbarek’s 20th album as a leader for ECM. It also happened to be the 500th ECM production. The figures say something about the value of endurance. Back at the beginning of this story George Russell claimed that Jan Garbarek would come to be regarded as the most important European improvising musician since Django Reinhardt. A remark that smacked of hyperbole at the time now seems credible.

 

The Allmusic review awarded the album 4 stars.
