Robert Balzar Trio & Dan Bárta

Theyories


2010

WEBSITE of THEYORIES


Well-known Czech vocalist Dan Bárta and the Robert Balzar Trio have released their first album, an acoustic collaboration entitled "Theyories"!
For those unaware, Dan Bárta and the Robert Balzar Trio have regularly performed together live for roughly the past ten years but have never recorded together as a unit. For making the album, it was decided to work with mostly new repertoire rather than simply commit a typical live set to tape. Twelve songs that have influenced Dan Bárta over the years were specially selected for "Theyories". The basic tracks for the album were recorded in Prague at Studio Smecky. For a different sound experience, it was decided to mix and master the album in New York City. Mixing was done at the prestigious Sear Sound by three-time Grammy Award winning engineer James Farber (Brad Mehldau, Bruce Springsteen, Al Jarreau, John Scofield...). The mastering done by another multiple-Grammy winner, engineer Mark Wilder – (Pat Metheny, Sting, Leonard Cohen, Miles Davis...).

01 - Spirits in the Material World(The Police)

Robert Balzar Trio

Overnight

2005
ABSOLUTELY GREAT - OVERNIGHT!
There’s no need to look for superlatives and endorsements from world-renowned names because music created by Balzar - double bass, Macha – piano, Slavicek – drums leaves no doubt. I’m known as a sensible person, very judicious and critical, and also quite bored by jazz. However, the guys play fantastically! The solos! The sounds! This is timeless well-mastered mainstream, which oozes with jazz like the spring with new life. It also draws handfuls of beauty from classical music. This is the finish line in a longdistance race.

AROUND THE BASS


Dear friends,
I am honored to present you my original project "Around The Bass".
I invited great musicians and friends and my wife to collaborate:)) and it was she who gave me the idea to make lyrics for my songs.
I grew up listening to American music, where genres naturally blend (jazz, pop, soul, R&B...), and that's exactly what this project is - a bit limitless.
I myself am curious where this music will take you...
Enjoy
RB
