We can clearly hear Yelena Eckemoff’s compositions as influenced by years of experience with classical music. Her work is a synthesis of jazz and classical music, drawing mainly on Impressionism, which reflects in harmony, melody, but especially in painting and instrumentation that clearly points to Impressionist inspiration. Leaving Everything Behind is a composing, remarkable album that links only seemingly distant two different worlds and makes it a very sophisticated and unique way.
