Different Rivers

Warmly received by many jazz critics upon release, Different Rivers won the German Record Critics Prize, "Jahrespreis – Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik" in 2001 and is frequently considered a landmark album in ECM's recording catalogue. Different Rivers nevertheless continues to attract positive jazz criticism. In revisiting the album's ECM Touchstone Series re-release, the Jazz Journal described Different Rivers as "...a masterclass in precision and control ... a most remarkable achievement". Recorded with Tommy Smith and the Scottish National Jazz Orchestra, Celebrations was devised as a contribution to ECM's 40th anniversary celebrations. Different Rivers was later one of 50 ECM albums selected for re-release under the 'Touchstone Series', to celebrate the label's 50th anniversary. == Track listing ==
