The Sophia Domancich Trio's album "Funerals" is a stunning display of musical virtuosity and emotional depth. From start to finish, the trio's interplay is flawless, with Domancich's piano leading the way with a combination of delicate melodies and powerful chord progressions. Bassist Michel Benita and drummer Ramon Lopez provide a solid rhythmic foundation, allowing Domancich to explore the full range of her instrument.
The album's title track is a haunting, mournful piece that sets the tone for the rest of the record. "The Gift" is a standout track, with Domancich's piano taking on a more aggressive tone, while Benita and Lopez provide a driving, pulsing rhythm. "The Bridge" is a beautiful, introspective ballad that showcases Domancich's lyrical playing.
"Funerals" is a masterful album that showcases the talents of three exceptional musicians. It's a must-listen for fans of contemporary jazz and anyone looking for music that's both challenging and deeply affecting.
