"Tomas Kutavičius: piano

In his music Tomas Kutavičius combines an experience of a jazz pianist with a rational mind and structure. The composer pays special attention to rhythm: inspired by jazz improvisations he employs syncopated rhythmic motifs, which serve as building blocks of structure of his compositions. These blocks of improvisatory nature are combined into longer, rhythmically irregular modules, which results in a truly virtuosic writing. Homorhythmic patterns are interspersed with polyrhythmic ones, where several layers of dissimilar rhythmic energy occur simultaneously. Nevertheless, despite the harsh rhythmic articulation, idiosyncratic melodic contours and the tendencies towards classical forms, the overall musical landscape of T. Kutavičius pulsates with freedom of improvisation. Despite being closely related to the minimalist aesthetics, the music of Kutavičius often travels across its stylistic boundaries, emanates a peculiar energy and a wide range of emotions."
