Customer Reviews

great young vibraphone player!

Prologue is Pinto’s initial foray into documenting his work on Inner Circle Music. “My ultimate goal is to combine my love of jazz, symphonic music, and science fiction stories into relatable works of art that fans of any of said themes can enjoy. And Prologue is but my first step,” says Pinto. Prologue features six originals by Pinto, one original by Logan Richardson, and two originals by Greg Osby. In Pinto’s own words, “Most of the originals on the album come from a science fiction tone poem (music that tells a story) I had written involving alternate dimensions, alien beings, and their struggle to survive a coming catastrophe.” In order to provide the compositions with the necessary atmosphere, textures, and musicality, Michael turned to the I.E. Group. The I.E. Group features four of New York City’s finest young jazz musicians: Logan Richardson (alto sax), Tommy Crane (drums), Christopher Tordini (bass), and Michael Pinto (vibes). With the I.E. Group providing the energetic core, Sara Serpa’s vocals were added to provide an ethereal cloud and complete the other worldly setting. Combining a clear sense of atmosphere, a refreshing new story, and exciting talent, Prologue is an impressive and reassuring view of what is to come in the world of music. “Look at the youth quotient and know we're in good hands.” —All About Jazz “Vibraphonist Mike Pinto is an aggressive performer who punches his way through the music's odd metered, harmonic twists like a prize fighter.” —JazzReview.com “A vital newcomer” —All About Jazz

composition

This artist is on the same label as a saxophone player I heard on a Rusted Root CD. It has got some beautiful compositions, including a cover, "Season of Renewal" by jazz icon, Greg Osby. I really enjoyed the relaxed pace of this album; the more I hear it, the more I like it. It's one of those albums that reveals itself over several listens. I definitely recommend this artist!

great work!

I first heard Michael Pinto at the village vanguard performing with greg osby and was blown away by how atmospheric his vibraphone playing is. When I noticed he put out an album on greg osbys new label, Inner Circle Music, I quickly got it and am NOT dissapointed. The vocals blended with the vibraphone is a very nice sound.

Prologue, Mike Pinto
