The Blue Land Matthieu Bordenave SKU: 5899301 Barcode: 602458993011 22.00 £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM Released Date: 5th April 2024 Buying Format: 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info For the follow-up of his ECM-leader-debut La traversee, French saxophonist Matthieu Bordenave expands his trio of German pianist Florian Weber and French bassist Patrice Moret with the unique sensibilities of drummer James Maddren, whose unrelenting pulse adds deft counterpoint to the group’s already idiosyncratic sound. Beyond the soulfully angular rendering of John Coltrane’s “Compassion”, the quartet tackles eight Bordenave-originals that bridge the gap between chamber-jazz dynamics and post-swing designs. Weber and Bordenave’s oblique approach to their instruments – Bordenave can be heard on both tenor and soprano sax – coalesce seamlessly, spinning unanticipated lines over a highly interactive rhythm section. The Blue Land was recorded in Pernes-Les-Fontaines in 2022, and produced by Manfred Eicher. Matthieu Bordenave: tenor saxophone Florian Weber: piano Patrice Moret: double bass James Maddren: drums “A delicate tightrope is trodden between tonal and abstract during the ominous title track, while Weber shifts from Jarrett-like piano on Coltrane’s ‘Compassion’ to a gently meditative hum on a Bordenave original ‘Cyrus’. It makes for an intriguing, collectively expressive set of chamber ensemble pieces.” – **** Jazzwise “For this gently challenging, quietly evocative and engrossing follow-up of his ECM-leader-debut “La traversée”, Bordenave expands his trio with the unique sensibilities of drummer James Maddren, whose deft touch and unrelenting pulse adds a perfect counterpoint to the group’s already idiosyncratic sound.” – **** UK Vibe “Sumptuously recorded at Studios La Buissonne in Pernes-Les-Fontaines, the same trio of Bordenave, Weber and Moret is this time augmented by London-based James Maddren, who brings both a sense of steel and his characteristic rhythmic guile.” – LondonJazz News “A wonderful album, and it will be fascinating to hear where the saxophonist takes is music going forward.” – Jazz Views Artist Matthieu Bordenave Genre Jazz Label ECM Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings La porte entrouverte The Blue Land Compassion Cyrus Refraction Distance Three Four Timbre Three Peaks Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jazz View Product Quick View Oscar Peterson/Milt Jackson Very Tall (Acoustic Sounds Series) Jazz | Verve (Acoustic Sounds Series) | 180g, 1LP Released 17th November 2023 £36.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Oscar Peterson/Milt Jackson Very Tall (Acoustic Sounds Series) £36.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Verve (Acoustic Sounds Series) SKU: 5509882 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 17th November 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Paco De Lucia, Al Di Meola & John McLaughlin Saturday Night In San Francisco Jazz | Ear Music | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 1st July 2022 £23.00 - £26.00 Select options Paco De Lucia, Al Di Meola & John McLaughlin Saturday Night In San Francisco £23.00 - £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Ear Music Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 1st July 2022 Read More Select options View Product Quick View Trombone Shorty Lifted Jazz | Blue Note | 1LP Released 29th April 2022 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Trombone Shorty Lifted £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note SKU: 3879692 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 29th April 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Thelonious Monk Genius of Modern Music Vol. 2 Jazz | Universal/Blue Note | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 17th February 2015 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Thelonious Monk Genius of Modern Music Vol. 2 £14.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Universal/Blue Note SKU: 4710521 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 17th February 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sonny Rollins Quartet Tenor Madness (Mono) Jazz | Analogue Productions (Prestige) | 180g, 1LP Released 29th October 2013 £45.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Sonny Rollins Quartet Tenor Madness (Mono) £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions (Prestige) SKU: APRJ7047 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 29th October 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Charles Mingus A Modern Jazz Symposium Of Music & Poetry Jazz | New Land | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 28th October 2022 £38.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Charles Mingus A Modern Jazz Symposium Of Music & Poetry £38.00 Genre: Jazz Label: New Land SKU: NEWLAND003 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 28th October 2022 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View Talking Therapy Ensemble & Emma-Jean Thackray Talking Therapy Jazz | Movementt | 12", EP/Mini Album Released 8th July 2022 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Talking Therapy Ensemble & Emma-Jean Thackray Talking Therapy £15.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Movementt SKU: MVMTT05LP Formats: 12", EP/Mini Album Released Date: 8th July 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Thelonious Monk Monk’s Dream Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 14th April 2014 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Thelonious Monk Monk’s Dream £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP842 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 14th April 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mahavishnu Orchestra Birds Of Fire Jazz | Speakers Corner | 180g, 1LP Released 22nd February 2019 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Mahavishnu Orchestra Birds Of Fire £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Speakers Corner SKU: KC31996 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 22nd February 2019 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket Nearly New View Product Quick View Lyle Mays Lyle Mays (includes interview) Jazz | Geffen Promo | 1LP Released 26th July 2013 £12.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Lyle Mays Lyle Mays (includes interview) £12.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Geffen Promo SKU: NN57843 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 26th July 2013 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket See more in Jazz Start again
