Durium Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 It's great fun to listen to a well arranged uniform stabile quartet like the Modern Jazz quartet, but what about a group whose members seem to be each other's opposites? The legendary Dutch Misha Mengelberg - Piet Noordijk Quartet from the 1960s seems to be such a band with two members who are fascinated by swing and bebop music and two others who later have won their spurs into the free jazz and improvised music. - great conditions for fascinating improvisations. Thanks to the former Dutch Jazz Archive we can enjoy a live concert by this most impressive Dutch jazz quartet of the 1960s, which lasted only a few years: The Misha Mengelberg-Piet Noordijk Quartet Misha Mengelberg-Piet Noordijk Quartet: Live at the Concertgebouw (1966) Durium Quote

clifford_thornton Posted June 14, 2011 Report Posted June 14, 2011 Thanks for the reminder - I just emailed them, too, with a nudge toward fresh baked brownies and fine Texas beer (haha). Maybe that'll get a reply? Quote
clifford_thornton Posted June 16, 2011 Report Posted June 16, 2011 I haven't gotten a response, but tried to fill out the order form as best I could and will see if they email me that way (since the only accepted payment is a checque in Euros). Quote

clifford_thornton Posted June 21, 2011 Report Posted June 21, 2011 If worse comes to worst, we'll just have Hans buy them for us and we'll paypal him, right Durium? Quote
clifford_thornton Posted June 22, 2011 Report Posted June 22, 2011 Thank you for your interest in our cd releases. You are correct: the current webshop is not equipped for foreign orders. We do have a paypal account on which i can make a request for money and you can digitally pay for your order. Though: i don’t know the exact details for the account. I will look into this matter and will get back to with instructions. I'll let you know how this all works out verily. Quote

clifford_thornton Posted October 9, 2011 Report Posted October 9, 2011 Poignant release in light of Mr. Noordijk's passing. Quote
JETman Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 I just listened to this, and it's great just to hear Mengelberg and Bennink in the early stages of their development, along with Curson thrown in for a couple of tracks. Not sure it was worth what I paid for it, though. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 I think the Newport recordings are musically "better," but this is good and available (which other Mengelberg from the period is definitely not). Quote
