Seb Pipe Trio
‘Music and Matisse’ CD and Press Reviews

“Seb has searched the world for striking and unique melodies and has adapted them to the jazz format with great success. A tight groove is held down by the bassist and drummer from which Seb launches his bold unique improvisations. One of the most difficult tasks for aspiring musicians is to come up with a fresh approach in any given musical idiom. Seb has certainly done this with great style and panache.”

“It is rare to find someone of Seb’s age with such insight and focus in his chosen field. He knows exactly what he wants to do, and what he needs to do to achieve it, and has proved he has the self-discipline to apply himself to the task.

Seb is pushing the boundaries and experimenting with some very innovative concepts…it is individuals like him who move the art form forward.”

Jean Toussaint (Tenor saxophonist and former member of Art Blakey's Jazz Mesengers)

 

“My biggest applause, though, went to Seb Pipe… No wonder the bard wrote: O it came o’er my ear like the sweet sound that breathes upon a band of violets.”

Edward Fennell (Times Newspaper 21/06/05)

 

“Swings like crazy……effortless playing and a unique pure sound”

Kunitachi Magazine (Tokyo, Japan, November 2004)
