BlueMusicGroup.com - Your jazz, classical and world music labelEnglish Breakfast is pianist and composer Mika Pohjola's arguably most successful live recording from the 1990s. It features his longtime quartet; saxman Chris Cheek, bassist Matt Penman and drummer Roberto Dani; and includes some of the most original and influential jazz directions of the early 21st century. English Breakfast was recorded live at the Cheltenham Jazz Festival on a tour of the U.K. and Scandinavia. The quartet concluded the tour by recording its most successful album, Announcement. This is exhilarating new music and features an uncanny degree of communication. Alyn Shipton, The Times
