Siden ECM nå er re-lansert på streamingtjenester så prøver jeg meg med en ny tråd for å se om vi kan får litt engasjement rundt musikk. Er ikke så flik å skrive om musikk selv men oppfordrer andre til å gjerne skrive litt om albumene de anbefaler.
Starter med denne der en av mine favoritter Dave Holland også er med.
BLUE MAQAMS
ANOUAR BRAHEM
Release date: 13.10.2017
ECM 2580
Format : CD 2-LP
Recorded in New York’s Avatar Studios in May 2017 and produced by Manfred Eicher, Blue Maqams brings Tunisian oud master Anouar Brahem together with three brilliant improvisers. For Anouar Brahem and Dave Holland the album marks a reunion: they first collaborated 20 years ago on the very widely-acclaimed Thimar album. Brahem meets Jack DeJohnette for the first time here, but Holland and DeJohnette have been frequent musical partners over the last half-century beginning with ground-breaking work with Miles Davis – their collaborations are legendary. British pianist Django Bates also rises superbly to the challenge of Brahem’s compositions. And Anouar in turn is inspired to some of his most outgoing playing. Blue Maqams is a highlight of ECM’s autumn season. Live appearances by the quartet will follow in 2018.
FEATURED ARTISTS
