Christian Sands - Quartet

"Though he really made his debut as leader at thirteen on 'Footprints' (Stanza, 2002), Sands' growth has been exponential...'Be Water' is his latest giant step forward, encompassing not only our shared experience and imagination but our humanity too, and that is a triumph no matter what age you are or find yourself in," states ALL ABOUT JAZZ (2021 Album Review of 'Be Water'). "In addition to being a technically adroit, harmonically sophisticated player, Sands is one of the most profoundly rhythmic young pianists in jazz today," says DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE. "Christian Sands is an extraordinarily complete musician. It isn't just the quality of his playing, although he has the most deft and sensitive touch at the keys..." states the LONDON JAZZ NEWS. "Sands, 34, is a fabulously gifted instrumentalist, a piano protege of Dr. Billy Taylor, Geri Allen, Jason Moran, and Vijay Iyer..." raves the BOSTON GLOBE.
