MICHAEL ATTIAS QUINTET: TWINES OF COLESION CD RELEASE
(Michael Attias, alto saxophone; John Hebert, bass; Satoshi Takeishi, drums; Tony Malaby, tenor & soprano saxophone; Russ Lossing, piano)
Celebrating their brand-new Clean Feed album, Twines of Colesion, the Michaël Attias Quintet gathers the entwined trajectories and prismatic contributions of five powerful and original creative musicians in a collective exploration of mutable form and combustible narrative.
Recorded live, the performances of the eight compositions on this album were picked from a series of three concerts at the 2008 Jazz ao Centro festival in Coimbra, Portugal, during the same residency which produced Attias’ recent trio release Renku in Coimbra (CleanFeed). Notated sections flow in and out of spontaneously generated sub-groups, forms dissolve and reappear in ever renewed shapes and time-feels, transitions between the pieces become pieces in themselves. In a remarkable example of highly democratic 21st century jazz, each performance is an unique and unrepeatable journey and each player an agent of power and change in directing the dream-flow. Twines of Colesion sings the song of a very special and risky sort of molecular paradise. Don’t miss it.
