With "Spellbound" Gurtu once again underlines the fact that jazz still forms the basis for his musical oeuvre. With his band he takes a surprising leap into the history of swing music in the USA and also plays pieces by style-forming trumpeters who have long been a part of the jazz canon: Dizzy Gillespie's Afro-Cuban classic "Manteca", or a tribute to the extraordinary fusion sound of Miles Davis from the 1970s, "Jack Johnson/Black Saint", as well as his "All Blues" from the masterpiece "Kind Of Blue" and, of course, Don Cherry's "Universal Mother" which, with its genre-crossing flow in the version by Gurtu, is almost like a further motto for "Spellbound". With the music on his new album the percussionist succeeds in something that nowadays is unusual and indeed rare: building a bridge between the continents and cultures. With "old" Europe as the geographical basis which, with its multi-layered cultural and musical history, has become Gurtu's second home.
