https://issueprojectroom.org/sites/d...?itok=jwuPdUPa ISOLATED FIELD RECORDING SERIES: LAURA ORTMAN - DUST DIVES ALIVE https://thedustdiveflash.bandcamp.co...st-dives-alive Field recording from her Flatbush apartment. Collage and violin with effects that sometimes mimic circular breathing sax playing. Donations accepted here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/white-mou...nRevU2Ti74lfex White Mountain Apache Tribe COVID-19 Relief Fund Ortman has mad skills but rarely showboats. Even alone she defers to the project at hand and only uses her violin as a compliment to whatever sounds happened to float into her apartment. She is an artist of great discipline and discernment. |
This 1979 release may be late in the game for hard bop and the names have changed, well not really- they were veterans on the genre, but these are the guys who stuck with it. This is as true a hard bop record as you’re likely to find and it’s absolutely smoking. I can’t remember if initially my goal was to comment on every recording PJJ played on just the ones he led. I few skipped here and there because... Idk... I don’t get why if you have to copyright you don’t make it available. But anyway, for now you can find this on YouTube. I know there’s a lot to listen to but this really is a good one. As so many are. |
https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/N4MAA...KVE/s-l640.jpg THE ELEPHANT’S JOURNEY by LAMA + Joachim Badenhorst Joachim Badenhorst clarinet and bass clarinet / Susana Santos Silva trumpet and flugelhorn / Gonçalo Almeida double bass, effects and loops / Greg Smith drums and electronics Name checked previously by Frown: https://www.musicbanter.com/1615422-post23529.html Listen here: https://cleanfeed-records.com/produc...hants-journey/ Unassailable 2015 release / composition driven electroacoustic free jazz Historic reference points: compositionally reminiscent of The Art Ensemble of Chicago and makes a nice companion record to the at the time yet to be released Roscoe Mitchell’s Bells for the South Side. Expressive/spiritual moments, frequently provided by Silva evoke the sensations of three particular very big name compositions: Lonely Woman, Alabama, and Enter, Evening. Take that as the praise intended. |
http://i1.wp.com/imagehost.club/mqs....size=500%2C500 Buxtehude: Abendmusiken Artists: Ensemble Masques, Lionel Meunier, Olivier Fortin, Vox Luminis, Dietrich Buxtehude I’m bringing this record to attention because it’s not only the music of a composer who deeply influenced Bach but according to an old textbook I have it’s specifically the music of that composer to which he was exposed. Bach, at the time was barely getting by as a professional organist in Arnstadt https://i.pinimg.com/236x/70/87/32/7...0e0a--pipe.jpg but Bach didn’t just like playing music. He also made incredible efforts to hear the works of other instrumentalists and composers. He was so interested in the music of Dietrich Buxtehude that he walked 225 miles to Lübeck https://i.pinimg.com/236x/c7/7f/6e/c...4b74e37823.jpg to hear him play his compositions. Bach lived like a pauper at the time. He stayed there to hear Buxtehude’s daily performances for four months living exclusively on charity and often sleeping without shelter and going hungry. The music on this recording sometimes sounds like Vivaldi, who was born around forty years later and some of it sounds like it’s barely branching out of the Middle Ages. It’s a great listen and a wonderful effort by the artists that devote so much time and hard work preserving the world’s musical heritage. |
