JANI CHRISTOU "LATE WORKS" (COLUMBIA, 1974)

Jani Christou was born at Heliopolis, N.E. of Cairo on January 9th, 1926, of Greek parents. He was educated at the English School in Alexandria, and began composing at an early age. In 1945 he travelled to England to study formal logic and philosophy at Kingās College, Cambridge under Ludwig Wittgenstein and Bertrand Russell (he attained an MA in philosophy in 1948). At the same time he studied music privately with H. F. Redlich, the distinguished musicologist and pupil of Alban Berg, and in 1949 travelled to Rome to study orchestration with F. Lavagnino. He also travelled widely in Europe, culminating for a short period in Zurich, where he met and attended lectures in psychology with Carl Jung....

Sadly the website dedicated to Jani Christou does not exist anymore.
But for  those who want to know more the 'web-archive' has kept the website from complete oblivion.

Bought this LP while on vacation with my family in Greece. Strolling through Athens I discovered a vinyl shop. While browsing through the inventory I didn't find anything which sparked me.
Then I asked for Xenakis, Christou...and here it was behind the cashier - albeit quite expensive.
I already wanted to turn away when surprisingly my family urged me three times to buy this LP.
Astonished and a bit perplexed I obeyed to their wish. It turned out that it was and still is to my own best.

UPCOMING & RECENT RELEASES XV

Finally! A book I wanted to read since years but unfortunately I'm not fluent in Japanese.
Fortunately Soejima Teruto's book "Nihon Free Jazz-shi / The History of Japanese Free Jazz" has been translated into English and will be available on December 18, 2018.
Thanks to "Public Bath Press" we're now able to learn more about the music which is featured heavily here at Inconstant Sol.

Soft Mountain - Soft Mountain - Hux Records 2003

After leaving Soft Machine, Elton Dean and Hugh Hopper tried to recreate groups in the same spirit like Soft Head or Soft Heap. All of these groups were interesting but none of them managed to reach the level of energy and creativity of Soft Machine Third. When I first listened to Soft Mountain I immediately felt that the energy of this band and its power was clearly close to the great era of Soft Machine even though the music is different. Tatsuya Yoshida and Hugh Hopper are particularly impressive during this powerful session.

UPCOMING & RECENT RELEASES XIV

 Here we are again with a pointer to some unexpexted, long awaited or simply exciting releases.

First we have seven new CDs/LPs on the Lithuanian label 'No Business Records'.

Wadada Leo Smith with Sabu Toyozumi on 'Burning Meditation' (recorded in 1994) and Marion Brown together with Dave Burrell on 'Live at the Black Musicians' Conference, 1981'.
Both available on CD.

 Then this recording from 2015 with Simon Nabatov | Barry Guy | Gerry Hemingway - 'Luminous' (CD)

But that's not all on No Business for November.
- Howard Riley - Live in the USA (from 1976 on CD)
- Bobby Bradford | Hafez Modirzadeh | Vijay Anderson | Roberto Miguel Miranda - Live at the Blue Whale (recorded last year - LP)
- JONES JONES - Larry Ochs / Mark Dresser / Vladimir Tarasov - A Jones In Time Saves Nine (LP - captured in 2016)
- Martin Küchen | Rafal Mazur - Baza (rec.2017 - LP)

 Yesterday I was quite surprised when I discovered two reissues on vinyl from a seminal FMP compilation and an LP where the music and the accompanying text is a wonderful big lie.
Responsible for outings is the label Song Cycle Records.

For 'Snapshot' the line-up does not read mouth-watering only but the music is actually very good and occasionally spectacular.

In August 1979, East German musicians were invited to perform a three-day festival in West Berlin. Billed as “Jazz Now,” this landmark meeting was recorded and initially released by Free Music Production. From stunning duos to challenging small-group performances, from large rave-ups to Mingus nods, Snap- shot” provides much more than that name suggests. It’s as complete a portrait of jazz in the GDR as you’re ever likely to find, and a moment in time that continues to reverberate — via these sounds — today

2LP - Gatefold - FMP 1980 - but beware - the very informative booklet is unfortuantely not included for the reissue!

----


 And not at least we have Michael Snow's piece of vinyl from 1987 which contains an extraordinary collection of tracks “of rare music derived from threatened, obsolete, or now-extinct cultures from around the world” plus a text to put the recording into context.
But as mentioned above - all of this is made up of recordings (and 'anthropological insights') by Snow himself.  Great collection of aboriginal music from - well - Canada.

UPCOMING + RECENT RELEASES XII

 

At least in Germany the October is called a golden one - provided the weather is sunny and dry. 

But even in case it should rain there's something which is able to rejoice us independently from any athmospheric athmosperics.

The end of this month will bring three LPs reissued through Be! Jazz from the vaults of FMP and ENJA.

More LPs from ENJA and FMP will follow - even an unreleased 1969 recording of Alexander von Schlippenbach's Nonet is in the making. More infos as soon as the release(s) are imminent.

 

Then we have five new CDs on Corbett vs Dempsey - available since yesterday.
Two of them I've added here.
Milford Graves 'Bäbi' does, apart from the reissued LP, include: "...the same trio at its inception, in home recordings made seven years earlier in 1969".

Plus the first of a scheduled series of ICP releases beginning with 'Groupcomposing': "...Mengelberg and Bennink ... joined by Bennink's brother, Peter Bennink, on alto saxophone and bagpipes (!), with an incredible reed section of Evan Parker and Peter Brötzmann, Paul Rutherford on trombone, and Derek Bailey on guitar".
More info - also about three CDs by Joe McPhee, two new ones and a re-edition, you'll find here.

The Ed Summerlin, Bob Norden Qt - Still Eat It - Ictus Records 1994

Some month ago Ernst posted this excellent lp here:

http://inconstantsol.blogspot.com/2018/01/don-heckman-ed-summerlin.html

At first I thought I didn’t know the two leaders but the name of Ed Summerlin stayed in my mind without creating any connection with some records, until I rediscovered this summer a forgotten box of cd that contains several dozen of records including this one. I know now why the name of Ed Summerlin was floating around my memory.

You can also find Bob Norden on the superb double cd or double lp of Bobby Bradford with John Stevens & The S.M.E
