Album Notes & Community Reviews
A masterpiece from the tragically short-lived Polish jazz violinist. 'Man of the Light' is a powerful and emotional post-bop album that showcases Seifert's incredible virtuosity and his unique, Coltrane-influenced approach to the violin. The music is intense, lyrical, and deeply spiritual, a key document of the European jazz scene of the 1970s.
