Guest Chaney Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 (edited) I just remembered that I have Ninh on La Voyelle Liquide, a disk that I run hot (well, lukewarm) and cold on. Any chance you're listening to this one right now? Edited June 25, 2005 by Chaney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chaney Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Sad news from Jan Strom over on the JC: Per Henrik Wallin died last week in Stockholm. Per Henrik Wallin has been a kind of cult figure on the Swedish jazz scene for many years. He has during the last years been quite active in Sweden with his quartet and also with his big band and he has also become more and more recognized internationally after the release of his two trio recordings; “The Stockholm Tapes” on Ayler and “Burning in Stockholm” on Atavistic. Per Henrik was 58 year old. He played a concert just 4 days before he died. He was bocked at Jazz Club Fasching for a quartet gig on July 2.

Nate Dorward Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Shouldn't we be called him "Le Quan" not "Ninh" for short? I always get muddled up with Asian names..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Oger Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Shouldn't we be called him "Le Quan" not "Ninh" for short? I always get muddled up with Asian names..... ← It's a vietnamese name. So first name ('prenom' in french) is in the second place. So, we always call him : Ninh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Oger Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Regarding Potlatch, I've sampled The Difference Between a Fish, The Contest of Pleasures, and I'm now listeing to Strom. Early impression is that each is presenting its sonic vision of hell; the polar opposite of new age music.... ← Ah ah !! I wish it would be that, not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chaney Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 I'm just now listening to (and enjoying!) One More Time (Leo) with Steve Lacy and Joelle Leandre. This is from the liner notes: In 2002 Steve Lacy decided to return to the USA. His way of saying farewell to Europe was a series of ten concerts which took place in different parts of Belguim with different partners. The concerts were organized and promoted by his loyal fans and friends with whom Lacy felt at ease and could express himself fully. For the concert in Gent his friends invited a Japanese dancer Shiro Daimon. In Brussels there was free music with Fred Van Hove and the Art Song with Irene Aebi. In a chapel in Gent there was another concert with a classical violinist Michail Bezverkhny. In cafe Belga in Brussels there was a very warm dialogue One More Time with improviser Joelle Leandre. Irene Aebi performed a second poem cycle in gasthof Heidelberg (Brugge). There were solo concerts as well in Mons and Brussels. The cycle of concerts closed in Antwerp at the Free Music Festival with a duo with Frederic Rzewski. This cycle of concerts is documented by Rita De Vuyst who produced an edition "Blossoms". It is a square album in a wooden cover containing notes to the concerts, drawings, photographs, 5 CDs and one DVD with the dancer Shiro Daimon. The box can be seen at http://www.afkikker.be/ and is available from Rita De Vuyst, Sint-Kwintensberg 52, Gent, Belguim, e-mail: info@afkikker.be. From the site, it looks like this set is still in production. I'm e-mailing Rita asking for its status and eventual cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chaney Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 I am now listening to this disc: Mujician - Colours Fulfilled featuring Tony Levin, Keith Tippett, Paul Dunmall and Paul Rogers. Fantastic music! Not as fiery and furious as I had expected. There are some wild moments but, so far (track #2) I have a great sense of a huge power barely kept restrained, as if they are ready to explode at a moments notice. Very interesting music and great playing. ← Friends, this is some great and very original music played by some of the most impressive musicians out there (I still have some reservations aboutr Dunmall - he is good, but probably the least original of the foursome, at least on tenor - his bagpipes are something else). Highly recommended. Tony, it is not that brutal, really. ← Heh-heh... Listening to Ghostly Thoughts right now. What I may have first heard as violent I'd simply describe as three musicians sometimes playing very fast. Ghostly Thoughts: Oh gawd: the entire Dunmall catalogue has now opened its welcoming arms. YIKES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YIKES! ← It's just 72 CDs - you can make it, Tony. ← It's easier than that as only 42 are in stock. (I'll never get to Europe!) Hans: I remember you and I were on the same page with Ghostly Thoughts. The, ahem, energetic playing initially turned me off and I believe it was the same for you. How much of a factor for you was the presence of the guitar? I like the guitar of John Adams as it's played very cleanly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Ghostly Thoughts is a solid disc, but it would have been terrific were it an Adams/Sanders duo (as Dunmall is the most predictable and "traditional" of the three). I summarized my feelings about the disc in this post merely a year ago - and you seem to have forgotten already! Edited June 26, 2005 by Д.Д.

I know: you deleted a post and then inserted this just-composed one. Excellent post. As is so often the case, you were (are) spot -on. NOW FIND US SOME Sanders / Adams! ~~~~~~~~~~~ Speaking of guitar, just realized that I never listened to my recentlly purchased copy of Derek Bailey's Aida.

Guest Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 Greetings! I've just joined, so have nothing to say for the moment But if you feel like having a look at a few pictures of Marco Eneidi from his recent Russian tour, here they are. Seeing him live is my most recent positive experience of free music. As far as Dunmall, I only heard Ghostly Thoughts and Hit and Run (and liked the latter more, but it's just me - for the rest of the world GT wins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
