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 Joe Henderson The State Of The Tenor: Live At The Village Vanguard, Vol.1 Jazz | Blue Note Tone Poet | 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 28th August 2020 £33.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Joe Henderson The State Of The Tenor: Live At The Village Vanguard, Vol.1 £33.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note Tone Poet SKU: 860056 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 28th August 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Alice Coltrane Universal Consciousness Jazz | Audio Clarity | 1LP, 45rpm Released 11th March 2022 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alice Coltrane Universal Consciousness £21.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Audio Clarity SKU: ACL0081 Formats: 1LP, 45rpm Released Date: 11th March 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Don Cherry Cherry Jam Jazz | Gearbox | 1LP Released 26th February 2021 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Don Cherry Cherry Jam £18.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Gearbox SKU: GB1559OBI Formats: 1LP Released Date: 26th February 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lou Donaldson Good Gracious!
