Originally from Azerbaijan, Shirinov was a member of world renowned bassist Avishai Cohen's trio (2018-22), recently included in All About Jazz's poll of the top favourite pianists in the world. "His record is a strong achievement - strong compositions, really good trio playing" - BRAD MEHLDAU

"The pianist is Elchin Shirinov, the thoughtful but forceful Azerbaijani musician who played on both Two Roses and Arvoles…Cohen's vivacious bass improv and Shirinov's contrastingly imperturbable lyricism glow through this fine set – and if the new tunes add few surprises to the leader's signature songbook, the playing is incandescent." – John Fordham, The Guardian

"Longtime collaborator Shirinov has an almost telepathic rapport with Avishai Cohen" – Kevin Whitlock, JazzWise Magazine
