Alexander Tsfasman - потому что у меня есть ты (Slow Foxtrot)
The title means probably something like “Because I have you...“
What beautiful pieces Alex found again.. I mean russian early Jazz music, how cool is that!
Now, Alexander Tansman, ....., I mean Tsfasman, 1906-1971 , was a Soviet Jazz pianist, composer, conductor, arranger, publisher and activist. He was an important figure in Soviet Jazz from the period of the mid-1920s until the late 1960s. Tsfasman was born in Alexandrovsk in the Russian empire, and graduated in 1923, where he played percussion in the orchestra, and graduated from the Moscow Conservatory in 1930 from the piano class of Felix Blumenfeld.
So I am pretty bad at jazz improvisations, but one thing I know, we don’t wanna play the same theme without any alteration 6 times in a row. It gets pretty boring... so be surprised :)
From the german wiki (which i happen to be able to read) i infer that he was basically the first russian and first solist to perform jazz music in soviet time.
