about

Intakt CD 251

A magic duo: Chico Freeman, 65, saxophonist, clarinettist, flute player, composer from Chicago, an eminent improvisor and Heiri Känzig, 58, born in New York, the Swiss double bass virtuoso. A transatlantic dialogue between one of America’s most versatile saxophonists and one of Europe’s most ‘all-round’ bass players.

Freeman and Känzig share that passion for the centre of gravity of the Jazz tradition, albeit with one precondition: that of transformation. And, with all their abilities for strong, heavy grooves, there is that preference for me-lody. „If you groove like hell and there’s no melody, it makes no sense.” (Känzig).

Peter Rüedi writes in the liner notes to The Arrival: „We could also read ‘The Arrival’ as something of an arrival at the centre of Jazz: Jazz, in the present tense. Or as it were: tradition in transition.

So Long, Eric! Homage to Eric Dolphy
by AKI TAKASE - ALEXANDER VON SCHLIPPENBACH with Karl Berger, Rudi Mahall, Han Bennink, et al.

supported by 10 fans who also own “The Arrival”

It is wonderful news to finally have the Swiss Intakt label catalogue available on BC...these terrific European labels (Intakt,Hat Art,FMP,Clean Feed et al) are really heroic; they have been putting out brilliant music for years and they endure because they really love the music and want to make it available...it is a mission. The Intakt catalogue is full of treasure for the serious listener and I will be revisiting old favourites and new releases for sure...download the pdf catalogue for free and start checking it out! The combination of Takase, von Schlippenbach and the brilliant music of Eric Dolphy (another Hero) was just too good to ignore! This music (and the entire catalogue) will stretch you,intrigue you and enrich you,I think. John Cratchley
