An occasion we have all been waiting for to happen again… Always on the move and constantly seeeking new horizons, István Grencsó is an ever young Hungarian jazz man with a thousand faces. At long last, he is meeting his African American soulmate, saxophonist and poet Lewis Jordan once again. Having first met in 2003, their joint project is documented by two triumphant albums released by BMC Records, Homespun in Black and White (2009) and Local Time (2011).

„István’s approach to music expresses a philosophy which I find the most alluring. He interprets ’free music’ in the exact way that resonates with me: with a passion and energy that comes straight from the heart. His compositions and his freedom of expression all lead to an uncompromised sensual experience.” – writes Lewis Jordan about Grencsó in the booklet of their first album. No truer words could be spoken about his partner in music and the compositions born from their meeting. Their non-stop interaction with an unbreakable rhythm section composed of two double bass players and a drummer provides the chemistry that is absolutely necessary for two such powerful soloists to attain their musical freedom.
