    Bio information: JOEL HARRISON, LORENZO FELICIATI, CUONG VU, ROY POWELL, DAN WEISS Title: HOLY ABYSS (Cuneiform Rune 334) Cuneiform publicity/promotion dept.: 301-589-8894 / fax 301-589-1819 email: joyce [-at-] cuneiformrecords.com (Press & world radio); radio [-at-] cuneiformrecords.com (North American radio) www.cuneiformrecords.com FILE UNDER: JAZZ “When you stare into the abyss the abyss stares back at you.” – Friedrich Nietzsche Full of foreboding and existential terror, the abyss resides in the darkest corners of the human imagination. Holy Abyss, a collaborative project between New York guitarist Joel Harrison and Italian bassist Lorenzo Feliciati, is an antidote to angst. Flowing from a deep communion between the artists, the album turns dread on its head, offering a series of expansive soundscapes full of lustrous harmonies, searching melodies and knowing interplay. Featuring trumpeter Cuong Vu, drummer Dan Weiss and Roy Powell on piano and Hammond B3 organ, the quintet reflects jazz’s increasingly international reach. Harrison and Weiss, musical comrades for many years, are New Yorkers, while longtime collaborators Feliciati and Powell hail from Rome and Oslo via the UK, respectively. Vu, who has toured and recorded with Feliciati and Powell, was born in Vietnam and is now based in Seattle, near where he grew up. The musicians are united by a passion for modern jazz unbounded by stylistic conventions. Open to sounds from around the world, they have all created music infused with electronics, odd meters, and uncommon timbres and tonal palettes. Holy Abyss opens with Harrison’s anguished ballad “Requiem for an Unknown Soldier,” which establishes the album’s elemental sensibility with its ethereal trumpet fanfare and slow burning guitar solo.

  • Myra Melford and John Zorn
    PROGRAM NOTES MUSICNOW: MYRA MELFORD AND JOHN ZORN Marc Mellits OCTET (2010) Duration: 14 minutes Instrumentation: String Octet Commissioned by the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra Premiered by the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra String Quartet & the Syracuse Symphony Youth Orchestra String Quartet on March 14 2010 at the John H. Mulroy Civic Center in Syracuse, New York Copyright/Publisher: Dacia Music The composer writes: “I composed my Octet during the winter of 2009-10. The majority of the music was written at the Banff Music Center, where I was invited to be an artist-in-residence in January 2010. The incredibly beautiful mountainous surroundings of the Banff Centre had a profound impact on me. My composing studio overlooked the Canadian Rockies, pristine and covered with snow and ice. The weather was brutal, with a level of cold I had never felt. This, juxtaposed with the astounding frozen beauty all around me, provided the inspiration for the music. My studio had a glorious enormous picture window that overlooked the Rockies. The music came quick and it came easy; before I knew it I had material for all four movements. The outer movements are aggressive and have the biting cold I felt, while the second and third movements reflect more of the warmth I felt inside, sharing my thoughts with a wide range of artists who were also in residence.” About the composer: Composer Marc Mellits is one of the leading American composers of his generation, enjoying hundreds of performances throughout the world every year, making him one of the most performed composers in the United States.

  • It Was Sometime in 1974 That a Number of Composition Students Were
    It was sometime in 1974 that a number of composition students were sitting at a table in the cafeteria of the New England Conservatory discussing the various musical issues of the day when Donald Martino, one of our Faculty Fearless Leaders, turned to Anthony Coleman and said “You know, Anthony, you are a truly literate musician.” Over the years, this condition has only intensified. I remember this quote now, in 2007, not only because it was true at the time, but also because after listening to the music on this CD I am deeply impressed that Anthony is able to draw from so many varied, disparate, and even contradictory sources, and still emerge with such a singular and consistent voice. It takes a truly literate and sophisticated mind to perceive the common threads of many languages and to sense their underlying unity. Listening to any of the five works on this CD is to enter into a particular world, highly specific in material but nearly hallucinatory in formal development. The music starts, becomes linear, suspends, goes vertical, goes backward, goes forward, produces vague memories, and ends. What happened? Something. Anthony was born in New York City in 1955 and is a pure product of that city’s musical energy. In high school he obsessed over Duke Ellington (a not-so-common thing for a high school kid in the late sixties and early seventies), hearing the band live for the first time on his fourteenth birthday. He subsequently got to know Ellington and the band personally, hanging out with them at gigs, and attending a workshop that they gave at the University of Wisconsin in the summer of 1972.

    BAD 94 ALCHEMY ...die zwei Grundmerkmale als Urfundament der Musik..., nach dem etwas nur dann als 'Musik' gelten kann, wenn es entweder über eine "elementare Großzügigkeit" verfügt, oder andererseits als "irgendein unartikuliertes Gebrüll" empfunden werden muss... Im "unartikulierten Gebrüll" als elementarer Bedingung ist enthalten, dass der Klang vom Schmerz des Daseins der Lebewesen ausgelöst wird. Demnach kann nichts als Musik gelten, was nicht vom verborgenen oder ausgedrückten Schmerz der Existenz erzählt, alles andere kann nur irgendein Blödsinn sein...

    Bio information: WADADA LEO SMITH Title: SPIRITUAL DIMENSIONS (Cuneiform Rune 290-291) Cuneiform publicity/promotion dept.: 301-589-8894 / fax 301-589-1819 email: joyce [-at-] cuneiformrecords.com (Press & world radio); radio [-at-] cuneiformrecords.com (North American radio) www.cuneiformrecords.com FILE UNDER: JAZZ / IMPROVISATION “I decided at the very beginning that Golden Quartet would be a lifelong quartet of mine, no matter what the personnel was or which direction it might go, whether it goes to the Golden Quintet…The idea is that of one horn player and rhythym” – Wadada Leo Smith “...not only as inventive and adventurous as he was when he was a younger player, but his creativity and ability to direct a band into new territory is actually farther reaching than ever before. This is brilliant work.” – All Music Guide “The Golden Quartet is the closest thing to a standard jazz group that Wadada Leo Smith ever used to present his own music. …the music is lively, even explosive at time, yet still exquisitely balanced. …No other composer accommodates the independence of the individual and the unity of the ensemble in quite the way Smith does. …the collective sound always coheres into something purposeful and beautiful. Remarkably, the personalities and forces are kept in balance.”– Point of Departure “...a welcome reminder of Smith's continued importance in the continuum of creative improvised music.” – All About Jazz Lauded as “one of the most vital musicians on the planet” by Coda, Wadada Leo Smith is one of the most visionary, boldly original and artistically important figures in contemporary American jazz and free music, and one of the great trumpet players of our time.
