Obvious Technical Ability Marred By Superficial Content Aug 14, 2009 There is certainly no disputing this young man's virtuosity. Sadly, this recording is more or less the same song rehashed over and over. It's a bit remarkable that someone with this amount of talent brings so little to the table regarding compositional depth. It's really just too much "happy face", and almost Teschian in nature. This kid should take a page from the likes of Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Brad Mehldau or even Hiromi. Hopefully he'll grow into a relevant artistic place commensurate with all that talent...
A keyboard savant! Feb 28, 2008 Having the mastery of exceptional keyboard speed is fine in and of itself. Eldar has this in spades. But without a sense of lyricism and rhythm creativity, this talent anomaly can wear thin quickly. Eldar's talent will not wear thin anytime in the next several decades. What a fresh star I look forward to enjoying for a long time. As good as the percussion work is by Ali Jackson, there are a couple of selections where it is a bit heavy-handed and consequently a bit distracting from Eldar's amazing presentation. Small criticism however. This CD is a joy!
What a tallent Feb 21, 2008 Living in KC myself i cannot believe I have not heard of eldar until just recently. Im not a true jazz or contemporary jazz fanatic but this album shows incredible potential. Granted the ballads are generic but this guy has genuine intentions in his music and hopefully he will grow into what he has the potential to be. Overall a good cd with stints of greatness.
THE GENIUS OF ELDAR Feb 13, 2008 Just caught a stellar live performance by Eldar in Long Beach, CA at the 'Backstage at Vault 350' Venue. What a refreshing new contribution to straight-ahead jazz! He's genuine. He's real. And he's so, so naturally talented. Not just trained, but talented! He feels what he plays. Something that I've been missing in much of the newer talent. I'm very impressed with Eldar and the young men that accompany him on bass and drums, and will purchase several copies of this CD as gifts for my true jazz friends.
