"The depth in Reznichenko’s playing, the oscillating of timbres and stylistic influences, the singing tone and sharp rhythmic detail of bassist Heigenhuber as well as Stadtfeld’s masterful, sometimes melodious, sometimes eruptive style of drumming create a unique sound and give Somnambule its special aura." - All That Jazz On Somnambule, Jazz pianist and composer Olga Reznichenko's debut album for Traumton Records, she sounds out the extremes of inspiration with an inexhaustible effervescence. Her intuitive style sees her react instinctively to musical stimuli, with the desire to hammer away at her instrument – almost as if she wished to destroy it – equally as valid as finding pleasure in more gentle, tranquil timbres. Reznichenko’s eponymous trio combines complex harmonic and rhythmic structures with a simple, almost minimalistic texture and accessible melodies. Her compositions also reflect her distinctive feel for aesthetic. Generally born out of improvisation, Reznichenko’s pieces give her unfiltered, intuitive enthusiasm for musical expression the space it needs to unlock her full creative potential. “It’s not directly about sleepwalking, but about different nocturnal states. These also included semi-conscious phases in which my thoughts don’t come to rest or melodies that I played before still reverberate.” - Olga Reznichenko
