CD ECM Records Old And New Dreams: Playing

1981
Don Cherry - trompeta, pian
Dewey Redman - saxofon tenor, musette
Charlie Haden - contrabas
Ed Blackwell - tobe

Don Cherry este unul dintre marii trompetisti ai lumii, subestimat si mai putin cunoscut. Ed Blackwell este unul dintre poetii tobelor, un tobosar care nu bate ci canta la tobe. Dewey Redman este un saxofonist care a inceput cu free jazz la scoala lui Ornette si a continuat prin colaborari cu cvartetul american al lui Jarrett. Despre Charlie Haden nu ar mai fi mare lucru de adaugat, poate cel mai cunoscut nume din grup.

VINIL ECM Records Mathias Eick: Midwest

2015


Mathias Eick - trompeta
Gjermund Larsen - vioara
Jon Balke - pian
Mats Eilertsen - contrabas
Helge Norbakken - percutie

Eick has a beautiful tone and writes attractive themes, by turns haunting and energetic. The inclusion of folk violinist Gjermund Larsen in the band adds a contrasting texture and some truly exciting solos. [ Dave Gelly, The Observer ]

VINIL ECM Records Mathias Eick: Skala

2010

Mathias Eick - trompeta
Andreas Ulvo - pian
Audun Erlien - bas
Torstein Lofthus - tobe
Gard Nilssen - tobe
Morten Qvenild - claviaturi
Tore Brunborg - saxofon tenor
Sidsel Walstad - harpa

A larger lineup and more detailed arrangements while never losing the lyrical path of the soloist the work is consistently revolving around. Textured layers of lyrical inventiveness. Engaging. While the admitted influences of this release range from calssical to pop, it is the brilliant use of these “pop sensibilities” that make “Skala” a sonic delight.

2017

Mathias Eick - trompeta, voce
Hakon Aase - vioara
Andreas Ulvo - pian
Audun Erlien - bas electric
Torstein Lofthus - tobe
Helge Andreas Norbakken - tobe, percutie

Eick's compositions have an overall darkness about them though their sophistication and accents, the punctuation of bass and percussion, makes for a highly listenable blend of emotions, without jolting fluctuations. As with Midwest the music on Ravensburg is deeply atmospheric. [ AllAboutJazz ]

2016

Jakob Bro - chitara
Thomas Morgan - contrabas
Joey Baron - tobe


Danish guitarist Jakob Bro creates magical music, impossible to categorize or capture. The songs on ‘Streams’ are best described as jewels revolving in mid-air, reflecting and refracting light. […] The beauty of ‘Streams’ is in its unknowingness, its sense of wonder and possibility. [ Ken Micallef, Downbeat ]

2017

Vijay Iyer Piano, Fender Rhodes
Stephan Crump Double Bass
Tyshawn Sorey Drums
Steve Lehman Alto Saxophone
Mark Shim Tenor Saxophone
Graham Haynes Cornet, Flugelhorn, Electronics

The 10-track, nearly hour-long album offers one of the bandleader’s strongest and most varied programs—one in which feverish ensemble writing hangs together with groove-oriented tracks and sparer experimental textures. […] The union of players and material inspires a new synthesis: the sound of Iyer consolidating strengths and discovering some new ones as he settles into the vibe created by his most potent band yet.

VINIL ECM Records Shai Maestro: The Dream Thief

2018

Shai Maestro - pian
Jorge Roeder - contrabas
Ofri Nehemya - tobe

The first ECM leader date for Shai Maestro (following his label debut with Theo Bleckmann on Elegy) features the gifted pianist fronting his superlative trio with fellow Israeli Ofri Nehemya on drums and Peruvian bassist Jorge Roeder, and also playing alone. A solo interpretation of Matti Caspi’s “My Second Childhood” opens the curtain on a programme of characteristically thoughtful Maestro originals, each one with a story to tell. “Hearing the Shai Maestro Trio is like awakening to a new world”, All About Jazz has suggested.

VINIL ECM Records Terje Rypdal: Waves

1977

Terje Rypdal - electric guitar, keyboard, synthesizer
Palle Mikkelborg - trumpet, fluegelhorn, RMI, tac piano, ring modulator
Sveinung Hovensjo - basses
Jon Christensen - drums, percussion

Terje Rypdal’s Waves (recorded 1977) announced the beginning of the Norwegian guitarist’s association with Danish trumpeter Palle Mikkelborg, which continues to this day. The album also introduced one of Terje’s most enduringly popular pieces, “Per Ulv.” “Rypdal’s album is a series of sonic excursions ranging from the expressionist to the impressionist…” wrote Record World. “Rypdal’s guitar and Mikkelborg’s trumpet are well-matched, with Manfred Eicher’s typically superb production putting it all in focus.”

Initially published in January 1978, vinyl is reissued in October 2016 as audiophile pressing taken from the original analog tapes.

VINIL ECM Records Ralph Towner / John Abercrombie: Five Years Later

1981

Ralph Towner - chitara clasica, double-six
John Abercrombie - chitara acustica, , electrica, mandolina electrica

John Abercrombie is unique among guitarists in that whenever he becomes enraptured his sound becomes neither louder nor more pronounced but becomes somehow mysterious, liberated. Ralph Towner, on the other hand, revels in the crackling ruptures that so characterize his playing. Yet these roles seem reversed in this follow-up to the duo’s Sargasso Sea. A far more fragile carnation than its predecessor, it seems to forego the usual bag of tricks in favor of something more, as the album’s title would imply, reflective. This is especially apparent in the three improvisations with which the set list is dotted, and nowhere more so than in “Late Night Passenger,” where Abercrombie’s laddered filaments provide stunning berth for the other’s muted, jangling starlight.

VINIL ECM Records John Abercrombie: Timeless

1974
John Abercrombie - chitara
Jan Hammer - orga, sintetizatoare, pian
Jack DeJohnette - tobe

This evergreen stands tall in the ECM forest. There is no sense of competition, only mutual reveling in a distinctly nuclear sound. One could easily call it fusion, but if anything it is fused with itself, for it has created every element it seeks to combine. Timeless indeed.

VINIL ECM Records John Abercrombie: Up And Coming

2017
John Abercrombie - chitara
Marc Copland - pian
Drew Gress - contrabas
Joey Baron - tobe

Guitarist John Abercrombie – who has recorded as a leader for ECM since 1974 – returns with a second album by his quartet featuring Marc Copland on piano, along with longtime rhythm partners Drew Gress and Joey Baron. Extolling 39 Steps, the group’s 2013 album, the Financial Times said: “The emphasis is on subtle intrigue, flowing lyricism and the interplay between the leader’s warm, cleanly articulated guitar and Copland’s piano… with bassist Gress and drummer Baron equally supple and sinewy companions.
