VIJAY IYER : CHILDREN OF FLINT [UNEASY, 2021]

Το νέο, εμφατικά multiculti τρίο του πιανίστα – συνθέτη Vijay Iyer, συναπαρτίζουν η μπασίστρια Linda May Han Oh και ο ντράμερ Tyshawn Sorey. Πρόκειται για μια ακόμα κυκλοφορία του σπουδαίου Ινδοαμερικανού μουσικού για την ECM. Οι συνθέσεις είναι ως επί το πλείστον δικές του, όπως αυτή που ακούμε.

The new, emphatically multiculti trio of pianist – composer
Vijay Iyer is completed by bassist Linda May Han Oh and drummer Tyshawn Sorey.
This is yet another release of the excellent Indian American musician for
ECM records, the compositions being mostly his, like the one we hear.

    The title Uneasy is a good one… As it feels like it is calm and smooth one moment… To then jump distorted .. Un-Easy.. 🙂 Not unpleasant. slightly disorientating… Which Makes me Uneasy.. lol….. Well named….. Thank you for the share Oannes.. 🙂

      Thank you very much Sue! This guy is exceptional, one of the best of his generation, I’ve followed him since the early ’00s. Excellent pianist and top composer, with a feeling for dramatic tension – something rather unusual for a jazz musician!

    Ahhh, I needed that! Listened twice, and have finally reached a form of relaxation!

    Beautiful and dramatic, all in one, echoing Sue’s comment.
    Have a good weekend, Oannes!
