about

Opera is the debut album of jazz guitarist and composer Aubin Vanns. His compositions come from life, reflecting universal emotions surrounding love, death and belonging, weaving together influences from jazz, folk and classical music.

In Opera, each composition is a song without words, coloured by evocative harmony and textural percussion. Lyrical guitar-led melodies soar above intricate piano harmonies whilst double bass and drums provide colour as well rhythmic drive.

Aubin is influenced by a wide variety of music including Bill Frisell, John Abercrombie, Radiohead, Edvard Grieg and Richard Strauss.
The compositions on Opera have been chosen from the past ten years, taking inspiration from jazz, scandinavian folk, Benjamin Britten as well as poets WB Yeats and FS Flint.

Opera was recorded in one day with the band all playing in the same room. This ‘live’ recording atmosphere has translated into an interactive and highly sympathetic recording.
