5.0 out of 5 stars - Take it before someone else discovers them, April 25, 2005
By: Jazzing (Santa Cruz, CA)
With my iPod on shuffle mode I have been pretty surprised several times to find out that the amazing Jazz coming out of it were from Lorraine tracks popping up like a blow of fresh air.
Such energy, such synergy among the players. What a great voice this group has. This is a great find. Take it.

Lorraine Desmarais
Lorraine Desmarais
By Chuck Berg
Canadian pianist Lorraine Desmarais is a power-packed dynamo whose right-hand forays and left-hand jabs keep everything in motion. Joined at the summit by bassist Michel Donato and drummer Magella Cormier, Desmarais negotiates a program of powerful originals. Equally important to the date's success is the presence of Tiger Okoshi whose soulful trumpet evokes a Milesish-glow. On "New Morning," Okoshi's bold trajectories electrify a canvas already charged by Desmarias' incendiary pianistics.
For the more contemplative "Eldorado," the pianist's ruminations are balanced by Okoshi's burnished fluegelisms. Darting between free-thing whirlwinds and stormy modal vamps, Desmarias and Okoshi soar above roiling thunder-heads set a-swirl by Donato and Cormier in "And One for Chick." An inspired reading of "Body and Soul;" provides a benchmark against which Desmarais' derring-do can be more clearly appreciated. It's an audacious take. So, too, is her limning of "My One and Only Love," in which echoes of Evans are transformed by the pianist's powers of invention, relentless momentum and technical panache. Brava, Desmarais!
