about

"With the release of Metamorphism, Lossing shines as brightly as any of the jazz pioneers who preceded him in mapping out their own musical journeys." - Downbeat Magazine

"Lossing is, plain and simple, a monster. With a richly resonant sound, he probes and wanders, darts, stabs, pokes around, then suddenly dazzles with an extended cascade that’ll raise the hairs on your neck. His technical prowess allows him to play as in or as out as he chooses, and he more or less splits the difference here in yet another masterful showing.
Metamorphism extends Lossing’s streak of triumphs." - JAZZIZ Magazine

Looking Ahead in Take Five: Russ Lossing
By Nate Chinen, WBGO
"Pianist and composer Russ Lossing has long been an expert catalyst; he knows how to spark life from somewhere deep inside a band. On Metamorphism, due out on Sunnyside on Friday, he performs this feat with a band well accustomed to his provocations. Along with drummer Michael Sarin, an associate of more than 30 years, it features John Hébert on bass and Loren Stillman on alto saxophone.
“Three Treasures,” which opens the album, is a call-and-response exercise — of sorts. Its central motif is a chromatic scrap of a phrase that the members of the ensemble circulate, and occasionally distort. Lossing's solo begins shortly before the two-minute mark, extending the intervallic language of the motif. And don't miss the intrigue he creates behind Stillman, later on."
