Melina Paxinos is a composer and saxophonist (soprano and alto) and dedicates her album Time, to the now state of time, because time is the most precious thing we have.
Here, modern Jazz meets Mediterranean flair, creating a small journey through time with the help of her expressive melodies.
The band Melina Paxinos Quartet plays together since 2018 and consists of Melina Paxinos (bandleader, sax, comp.), Yiannis Papadopoulos (piano), Ntinos Manos (bass)
and Dimitris Klonis (drums). As a guest musician this time she invited Andreas Polyzogopoulos, who with his lyrical playing, accompanies the band with his trumpet and flugelhorn. The last song on her album Ta Matoklada sou Lampoun is a composition by one of the most famous Greek rebetiko musicians Markos Vamvakaris (1905-1972), which Melina rearranged for her album, thus bringing the past, that is the cultural heritage, into the present.
