BADEN BADEN NEW JAZZ MEETING 1975 "TEN YEARS GLOBE UNITY ORCHESTRA"


Here we have another installment of the Baden Baden Free Jazz Meetings.
This post of the concerts/rehearsals is not complete.
Several titles were released and are still available and therefore not included here.
You can find the missing titles: "Every Single One of Us is a Pearl," "Ruby, My Dear," and "Kunstmusik II" on Pearls (FMP 0380)  at destination-out.
 "Marañao," "Composition 23B," Jahrmarkt," "Hannebüchen." and "The Forge" on Baden-Baden '75 (FMP CD 137). The CD is to my knowledge still in print although harder to obtain. Try it here f.e.

I'm indebted to Peter Losin for his detailed information regarding line-up and titles - I took the freedom to duplicate it here with some minor changes. (Miles Ahead)

Notes:

Some of the music from the Workshop portion of this set (discs 1-3) has been issued commercially: "Every Single One of Us is a Pearl," "Ruby, My Dear," and "Kunstmusik II" on Pearls (FMP 0380), and "Jahrmarkt" on Jahrmarkt/Local Fair (Po Torch PTR/JWD 2). These titles were recorded November 25-27 at the Südwestfunk Studios in Baden-Baden during the New Jazz Meeting dedicated to "Ten Years Globe Unity Orchestra."

For Part 2 of Kowald's "Jahrmarkt," the group is divided into six small groups throughout in the studio. From left to right in this recording:

Kowald (tuba), Schlippenbach (acc), Brötzmann (cl)
Parker (ss), Wheeler, Rutherford
Christmann, Niebergall, Lovens
Braxton
Mangelsdorff, Dudek (ts)
Rava, Carl (ts), Pilz

The issued version of "Jahrmarkt" is presented as a single performance but in fact -- because of the logistics of arranging musicians in groups around the studio -- it was recorded in three pieces.


Rutherford's "Hip Hymn No. 2" also involved complicated logistics. The musicians are arranged in four groups from left to right:

Braxton, Dudek, Parker, and Wheeler
Christmann and Brötzmann
Schlippenbach, Kowald, Niebergall, and Lovens
Rava, Carl, Pilz, and Mangelsdorff

In addition, Rutherford prepared a tape of the synthesizer part, and the group played on top of it.

Discs 4-5 were recorded during a public performance on November 28 at Kurfürstliches Schloss in Mainz.

Hi!

Gamefront: cd1,2,3 - exactly!!!

Ernst Grgo Nebhuth said...

Hi anonymous - yes a few tracks are missing.
If you read my introduction above carefully you will find out why - the missing tracks are available as official releases.
Sometimes it is useful to read the complete post...
Here at Inconstant Sol we post only music which is out-of-print or otherwise seriously not available!!

Splendid, Onx. Thanks for continuing this series. We have posted 1969, 1970, 1971, 1976 and 1977, as far as I can remember, so if there are any more BBs up you sleeve, we'll be forever thankful.

A very big THANK YOU to Peter Losin and his website for the detailed and complete information, and a second THANK YOU, of course, to onxidlib for posting all the "lost" performances.

slovenlyeric said...

Thank you for all of your work on this. Some great music here. Much of it seems as good as what got released officially.

I'm happy that I can listen to all these lost rarities now. Thanks a lot! - But I have a question: where can I find "Hip Hymn No. 2" (P. Rutherford) 19:34. It should have been on disc 2, but it isn't. And it is also not on Baden-Baden 75 (FMP CD 137)

Anonymous said...

Sorry, just found "Hip Hymn No. 2"!

francisco santos said...

it was wonder if you could re upload this Baden gem...for the third time... Big THX

Ernst Grgo Nebhuth said...

I'll do this one soon.
If necessary I'll reup the 1977 one as well.
From the 1976 BBFJW I have a more complete version.

Ernst Grgo Nebhuth said...

Re-up without the officialy released parts - for more information please refer to the post's text:

BIG THX !!!!....

Michael said...

Links 3, 4 & 5 appear to be dead.

Michael said...

Maybe those links are dead because they are the officially released parts? If so, sorry my mistake for not reading the instructions. Either way thank you onx and others for all the incredible jazz, especially the Baden Baden lately.

Ernst Grgo Nebhuth said...

HI Jawn Michael - just tried all links (not logged in) and all are still visible / available. Which they should as I have a payed account. The officially available parts I've never posted. The five links from July 26, 2015 contain only the unissued music.
Maybe you try it again.

Michael said...

Sorry my error again and thanks for the great music.

Michael said...

Yup I made another user error. The Baden Baden stuff you've provided is amazing.

BT said...

Thank-you very much

BT said...

Really good - thank-you!
