Tigran Hamasyan is today one of the most prominent pianists on the international jazz scene. Winning the prestigious Thelonious Monk Competition in 2006 at just 19 years of age, the Armenian-origin musician was quickly catapulted into the highest musical circles. Even a demanding producer like Manfred Eicher took notice of him and invited him to record several albums for his ECM label, including Luys / Luso with the Yerevan State Chamber Choir, and Atmospheres with Scandinavians Arve Henriksen, Eivind Aarset, and Jan Bang. Later, he joined the roster of the American label Nonesuch, another important record label for which The Call Within was released, recorded in trio.

The Call Within explores the invisible inner world of the artist, as realistic and tangible as the reality surrounding him, where it’s possible to encounter all his inspirations: ancient geographical maps, Christian and pre-Christian poetry, Armenian folk stories and legends, astrology, geometry, but also progressive rock and even a hint of metal.

Live, the musical outcome produced by the trio is a unique mix of jazz-fusion sounds, electronic alchemies, and Middle Eastern folk scents. In other words, truly global music.
