Edito de AenaonEqually fluent on tenor and soprano saxophones, Dimitrios has put together a thoughtful collection of his original compositions on this, his first Candid outing. His fellow musicians on this recording are well-respected and extremely talented members of the Greek jazz community. Dimitrios uses a variety of Greek and World rhythms to great effect in his writing. Particularly intriguing are 'Aenaon' and 'A Puppet's Dream,' both of which feature the Arco String Quartet. Dimitrios has a satisfyingly warm sound on his horns, - on soprano this is particularly evident on the tour de force rendition of 'Secret Path' with its constantly changing rhythm patterns. His tenor gets a major workout on the imaginative 'Triptych,' with the intimate, lyrical side of his sound to the fore on 'Puppet's Dream' and 'Ammos Somma.' Dimitrios' friend and label mate saxophonist Craig Bailey was on hand in Athens for this recording and the two horn men show their affinity for one another on the lively 'Regroova Ce,' 'Aegean Samba,' and 'Mind of Blue' - a funk and fittingly groovy climax to an auspicious debut.
