and a great professional and human experience, all that shaped him to a very
flexible musician, who´s able to be creative in almost any kind of setting.
The first notable step in his career was the collaboration with the US
drummer veteran Steve Reid, which started in 2000 and continued until Steve´s
death in 2010. Boris was a member of several groups led by Steve, including his
acoustic trio (CD´s "Waves" and "Invitation" CPR Records), his quartet and a
recent "Steve Reid Ensemble" featuring a brilliant electronic musician Kieran
Hebden (aka Four Tet). With the Steve Reid Ensemble Boris has recorded 2 CD/LPs,
"Spirit Walk" in London (Souljazz, 2005) and "Daxaar" (Domino, 2007/08), this
recording was made in Dakar, Senegal and it features some of the local african
musicians, "Daxaar" was well received by both, critics and listeners, this
recording has sold over 7000 copies in the US. The Steve Reid Ensemble has
performed on the diverse international jazz festivals, it was touring the UK
twice (the first time along the famous BBC DJ Gilles Peterson), Spain and other
countries. The Steve Reid Ensemble has made it´s last recording in 2009 in New
York, where the band was touring. Unfortunately this one still remains
unreleased due to sudden death of Steve Reid.
