Vermillion Kit Downes Petter Eldh & James Maddren SKU: 3885003 Barcode: 602438850037 22.00 £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM Released Date: 27th May 2022 Buying Format: 1LP Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Kit Downes joins forces with long-time collaborators Petter Eldh on bass and James Maddren on drums for a carefully assorted piano trio programme that treads gentle lyricism and bold creative outbursts in equal measures. Downes, whose prior ECM offering Dreamlife of Debris was termed a “work of otherworldly beauty” by BBC Music Magazine, carves out some of his most compendious pieces to date on Vermillion. Replete with subtle twists and turns, the trio offers its idiosyncratic take on the piano trio format, producing unexpected harmonic alterations and animate rhythmic flashes as they flesh out distinct musical forms. Recorded at the Auditorio Stelio Molo in Lugano, the three-piece outlines a unique design for this instrumentation in clear-cut interplay and creates a profound study of Kit Downes’ broad musical imagination in the process. Kit Downes: piano Petter Eldh: double bass James Maddren: drums “Downes has pointed to the late great John Taylor’s influence on his music and it’s evident here in the young pianist’s sublime lyricism and his textured approach to improvising.” – ***** BBC Music Magazine “Poetic by nature and remarkably accessible, Vermillion, Downes’ wildly affecting rebuttal to 2019’s rich, sometimes prickly dispatch, Dreamlife of Debris (ECM), tip toes in like a ballerina assured of her mastery of movement and keeps one riveted and rapturous throughout the revue.” – **** 1/2 All About Jazz “Overall there’s a lovely feel to this recording, where construction and deconstruction exist in harmony, yielding gracefully melodious themes in the process. But it’s those little sparks and flourishes that stand out from this trio, delightfully rewarding the listener with some wonderful moments to savour.” – **** UK Vibe “As a long time admirer of all three musicians I’m highly impressed with ‘Vermillion’, which represents something new and different for all of them. The writing is consistently intelligent and it’s interesting to compare and contrast the differing styles of Downes and Eldh within the overall ‘chamber music’ aesthetic that informs this particular album.” – **** The Jazz Mann “There’s an emphasis on balladry, with each part of the triumvirate pulling out subtle melodic threads from the written themes like a magician, only for them to seemingly vanish as quickly as they appeared.” – The Quietus “This is an excellent follow up to Kit Downes’ previous ECM albums. It is an album that bears repeated listening to bring out the subtleties of the playing and the interaction between the members of the trio.” – LondonJazz News “Kit Downes unveils a terrific acoustic trio of cool fluency and conversational ease (including an oblique view of Jimi Hendrix’s Castles Made of Sand) on Vermillion.” – The Guardian Artist Kit Downes Petter Eldh & James Maddren Genre Jazz Label ECM Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Minus Monks Sister, Sister Seceda Plus Puls Rolling Thunder Sandilands Waders Class Fails Bobbl's Song Math Amager Castles Made of Sand Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jazz View Product Quick View Kenny Dorham The Arrival Of Jazz | 1LP Released 7th December 2006 £11.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kenny Dorham The Arrival Of £11.00 Genre: Jazz SKU: JAM5007 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 7th December 2006 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Deodato Deodato 2 Jazz | Speakers Corner | 180g, 1LP Released 29th April 2014 £34.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Deodato Deodato 2 £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Speakers Corner SKU: EUROS6029 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 29th April 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Enrico Pieranunzi Felliniiazz Jazz | Cam Jazz | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes CD Released 3rd July 2015 £42.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Enrico Pieranunzi Felliniiazz £42.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Cam Jazz SKU: CAMJ78671 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve, Includes CD Released Date: 3rd July 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View McCoy Tyner Sahara Jazz | Mobile Fidelity | 180g, 1LP Released 7th April 2009 £50.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders McCoy Tyner Sahara £50.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: MFSL1289 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 7th April 2009 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Herbie Hancock Death Wish Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 5th September 2011 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Herbie Hancock Death Wish £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP346 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 5th September 2011 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Count Basie Live at the Sands (Before Frank) Jazz | Mobile Fidelity | 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 6th November 2013 £73.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Count Basie Live at the Sands (Before Frank) £73.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Mobile Fidelity SKU: MFSL24012 Formats: 180g, 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 6th November 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Wes Montgomery Wess Best Jazz | Resonance Records | 1LP Released 13th March 2020 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Wes Montgomery Wess Best £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Resonance Records SKU: HLP9044 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 13th March 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Joe Lovano, Marilyn Crispell, Carmen Castaldi Trio Tapestry Jazz | ECM | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 25th January 2019 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Joe Lovano, Marilyn Crispell, Carmen Castaldi Trio Tapestry £19.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 7736190 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 25th January 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Bill Frisell & Thomas Morgan Epistrophy Jazz | ECM | 2LP Released 12th April 2019 £26.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Bill Frisell & Thomas Morgan Epistrophy £26.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ECM SKU: 7739824 Formats: 2LP Released Date: 12th April 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Candy Dulfer Saxuality Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 3rd November 2023 £28.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Candy Dulfer Saxuality £28.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP3143 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 3rd November 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders See more in Jazz Start again
