Butch Morris, Modena (It) 2009. Folding Space, Modette and other Songs

Fake album n. 6!

Lawrence "Butch" Morris - "Folding Space: Modette & other songs"
recorded at Angelica Festival, Teatro Comunale Modena (Italy)
sunday 31 May 2009

running time 52'43" with radio intro and outro

An unusual project, purposely composed for this festival, focused on mixing the "expressionism" of Kurt Weill and Hanns Eisler Hanns Eisler with written avantgarde and improvisation, adding moments of Morricone's musicality. Modette is actually a theatrical work started in 1981 based on lyrics by Allan Graubard, these are supposed to be "songs" interpolated with improvisations, but I really don't get any ideal tracksplit. Also included in the folder, marked as track 00, a short radio introduction in ITALIAN with bio notes and commentaries - this intro runs for 3'35", you can skip downloading it if you don't understand italian.


Lawrence D."Butch" Morris, conduction and compositions.
Shelley Hirsch, vocals.
Shelley Burgon, harp.
Eri Yamamoto, pianoforte.
Mary Halvorson, electric guitar.
Kenny Wollesen, vibraphone and percussion.

Interjazz 4 - Starý Dobrý Cirkus - Good old circus



I've been pondering over this record for a while. I thought it looked good on paper, so when the chance came to get a copy, I found to my delight that it sounded good in practice as well. This was, I believe, a one-off event, so I doubt whether they have met later, but if they have, I would be interested to know.

This is a fine addition to the catalogue of European free jazzy big bands, suffice it to mention Globe Unity Orchestra, Willem Breuker Kollektief, Instant Composers Pool and the venerable Brotherhood of Breath. Breuker is here and so is Louis Moholo, the drummer with the BoB and the later Dedication Orchestra. The original version of "Khanya" is the opening tune on Moholo's "Spirit Rejoice" release on Ogun in 1978, later rereleased on cd and which should be part of any serious jazz collection. Yep, that important.

The title hints at circus music, and the burlesque playfulness of the Kollektief and the Brotherhood are on display with merry themes and raucous collective improvisation with the expert team of Bednarek and Moholo keeping a rock-solid rhythmic backbone. Listen especially to Moholo's "Khanya", a ferocious workout over the majestic theme, but there's also Breuker's "Another flat jungle", a circus-like theme giving way to beautiful ensemble work and a Breuker solo firing up Bednarek and Moholo behind him.

All in all, an ultra-fine record and on a label which I have rather associated with Dvorak and Smetana! It was later rereleased on the FMP label, but this is taken from the original Czechoslovakian release. By the way, if there are any followers from the Czech Republic or Slovakia, it would be interesting to know what the sleeve notes say. They are attached to this post in the comments section.

Unluckily in these days I've got so little time to write something about my new posts.
I'd like to write about all those marvellous musicians and musical worlds, and even try a little search for the titles.
Today I've got only time to do my best searching
Just a brief annotation: all the future posts (some are ready) perhaps will be without annotations.
I'm sorry, but this is to me the only way to continue to give a little contribution to this astnishing fine place.

Thanks to "punkjazz" who first posted this amazing concert on Dime.

The Trio - Live in Berlin 1969



Rounding off The Trio sessions here, this is another live recording, prior to the one in Altena we posted before. As with the other Trio recordings, tunes tend to run together, so I'm putting up the playlist as it was announced at the end. A commenter at the Dime torrent web site suggested an alternative set of tunes for the long medley. The only tune in common is "Silvercloud", from the first double album, which I can confirm as well. But I very much doubt whether "Oh Dear" was in that set.

At the time, it was the John Surman group, later changing name to The Trio, so for the sake of consistency, I think we'll settle for The Trio for the heading.

WHO Trio WIST Graz, Austria 2010.03.12 Open Music


Michel Wintsch - piano
Baenz Oester - bass
Gerry Hemingway - drums

The trio of Michel Wintsch (Geneva, Switzerland), Baenz Oester (Berne, Switzerland) and Gerry Hemingway (New Jersey, US) began touring and recording together in 1998. All three players are very physical with their instruments and although the recordings are a good indication of what to expect, there is much more to look foward to when experiencing this trio in concert. Words though belie the sheer enjoyment this trio have brought and continue to bring to audiences worldwide.

The Trio - 'By Contact'



As announced in the previous post, here is the final entry in the Trio discography. Nominally the third, if one discounts "Conflagration" which was not strictly speaking a Trio record, though with the Trio at its core. We have posted the first double album which has been reissued on cd and the "Live in Altena" which had a limited circulation back then and has not been officially rereleased.

This one was out on the Ogun label in 1987, 16 years after its being recorded in the Tangerine Studios in London. There's a misprint on the back sleeve saying it was recorded in 1979, but by then the Trio had long disbanded. It was remastered at the Rainbow Studios in Olso in 1986. This studio was reguarly used for ECM recordings and by then John Surman had pretty much shifted to ECM as his main outlet. So it is more than likely that Surman had kept the master tapes and asked the studio to do a remastering job on them. But ECM didn't release them.

Six pieces on this record:

Side 1
Flyover (John Surman)
Open Brown (Barre Phillips)

Side2
Utah, Oregon (Stu Martin)
Noninka (Stu Martin)
Cant (Barre Phillips)
In The Round (Martin, Phillips, Surman)

Stu Martin - drums
Barre Phillips - double bass
John Surman - baritone and soprano saxes, bass clarinet, cornet

As the other Trio records, this is very much a collabarative effort with composition credits liberally divided among the three. This one has the novelty of hearing Surman on the cornet. I'm not sure if this was a one-off thing, because I can't recall Surman playing cornet regularly later. On other tracks, he switches to bass clarinet and soprano sax, though it's the baritone that is his main instrument throughout. Moodwise, it shifts from ferocity to placidity, with Stu Martin supplying the former and Barre Phillips the latter, at least to these ears.

The final three pieces pieces on the second side pretty much run together, so I haven't put in track markers. It's fairly easy to hear the transition points as Surman picks up another instrument to head into the next tune. For more details, please consult the extensive liner notes by Charles Fox on the back of the sleeve, attached to this post.

Steve Lacy - (1992) New York 1992.04.01 (Trio) - [FLAC]


Another imaginary cover from an imaginary label.


Hi to everyone here!
FIRST A GREAT THANKS(!!!) TO ALL INCONSTANT SOL CONTRIBUTORS
for their generosity and invaluable work!

Day by day I've been sure that places like this one really contribute to the knowledge of this terrific music, and to the growth of the musical culture in general.
I've been (I'am) proud of having little contribute to this blog.
As a gift to everyone here and in particular to those who couldn't rightly download this recording.

I'll re-up here that astoshing fine concert with new links.
