Chad Burrow - American Landscape - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Jean-Efflam Bavouzet's survey of Haydn's piano sonatas reaches it's conclusion with this 11th and final volume. As with the previous releases, the acclaimed pianist has included repertoire from different periods of Haydn's career to create a recital of interest in it's own right, as well as the completion of the series. Jean-Efflam notes 'It has been eleven years since the launch of this project to present Haydn's sonatas, not in their chronological order, but as collections juxtaposing works from different periods. The program for this final album was actually the first one to be devised I wanted to place side by side the very first and the very last sonata. Then the idea of fleshing out the sonata cycle with other major pieces began at volume four, with the addition of the famous Variations in F minor, and finally this last volume is made up of as many sonatas as other types of works. The complete series is thus able to offer music lovers all the sonatas identified to date, together with the other major keyboard works.' Album Tracks 1. Sonata No. 1 in G Major 2.

Saxophonist-producer Chad Fowler has been prolific since launching his tag Mahakala Music. His latest releases - Thinking Unthinking and Broken Unbroken - realize his decades-long dream of recording in a trio with bass and drums. Bassist William Parker and drummer Anders Griffen each made their debut recordings with saxophonist Frank Lowe, albeit over 20 years apart, and originally made their musical connection at the turn of the millennium. Parker works with Fowler in Mahakala's inaugural band, Dopolarians.  These two titles were both recorded on the same day in August 2021. The music is completely improvised except for a couple melodies Fowler brought to the date - heard on KongereiInch and InchMarkerInch - but Parker and Griffen were not privy to these. Working together for the first time, the trio finds an easy rapport and takes advantage of the unlimited space afforded to them while exploring a range of textures and dynamics and everything from serene to aggressive.InchKongereiEaruntoShall Album Tracks 1.
