Review 1
As its name suggests the undertone of this almost big band is African music, for which the South African bassist Johnny Mbizo Dyani had been a great contributor. A few months after Dyani's untimely death, the guitarist/bandleader D�rge dedicated this recording to the bassist.
"... In Pierre D�rge and Jungle Orchestra, jazz and the world music meet in harmony...the best band in today's universal jazz..." (Jens Gjedsted, Det Fri Aktuelt) |
