Дебютный диск замечательного вьетнамского трубача. Великолепный джаз, в основном неторопливый, с тягучей трубой, иногда довольно таки авангардный. Наилучшие рекомендации.
Пишут
"...one of the most adventurous, distinctive recording debuts of recent years, blending nervy funk with dreamy, drifting melodies, vigorous street beats with free-floating delicacy." —Chris Parker, BBC Music Magazine (October 2000)
"Cuong Vu has yet to improve his debut recording, which opens with some of the fiercest trumpet playing you'll hear ... 'Our Bridge' finds him in yet another mode, darker and more mysterious, and not unlike Wadada Leo Smith's 'Procession of the Great Ancestry'.... Saft's Fender Rhodes has a thoroughly fresh and contemporary quality...""
—The Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD
"[Cuong's] playing encompasses both achingly beautiful melodies that sing like those of the Prince of Darkness and the occasional use of punchy extended techniques reminiscent of Lester Bowie....Throughout Bound, Vu's performance is remarkably assured..."
—Christopher Porter, JazzTimes (July/August 2000)
"...Vu melds lustrous tonalities and lyrically rich lines with the often turbulent and thoroughly striking support provided by fellow New York City based virtuosos, drummer Jim Black, electric bassist Stomu Takeishi and keyboard whiz Jamie Saft.... Bound is brimming with ingenuity yet also packs a heavyweight punch! Highly recommended.
—Glenn Astarita, AllAboutJazz.com (May 2000)
"The clarity of Vu's sound is astonishing, and this band may be bound by an avant jazz pigeonhole, but not ever gagged by it.... Vu's concept is unique and distinctive ... fully charged with depth, substance, and fine musicianship. Recommended."
—Michael G Nastos, All Music Guide
"Vu has put pieces of the jazz puzzle together in a highly individual and compelling way."
—Stuart Nicholson, Jazzwise (UK) (September 2000)
"...outstanding —very emotional jazz in a classic style."
—Urban American Journal (18 May 2000)
