Kinda moved on, but Amazon Prime has this doc that covers him from the beginning up to the big Talking Heads "breakthrough", so, you now, it's a holiday weeke3nd, nothing else going, why not, right? Good show, actually, and when this Satie thing starts playing, WHOA!!!!! right? Now here's a probably stupid question - how much connection between Satie and the Bill Evans of "Peace Piece" has there been? Putting this de Leeuw record right in that mix connects some dots, puts one more piece of the puzzle on the table. It never stops....  Along with the Bill Evans connection, here are two more artists that owe a debt to Erik Satie: Particularly on Hutcherson's composition "Bouquet"  and Beirach blends classical influences with jazz more successfully than any other pianist I've heard. Particularly 20th c. composers like Scriabin, Mompou, and Bartok. I hear Satie's influence on this disc. Apparent simplicity that's not really simple. Like a haiku. We can also make another connection in the puzzle b/c Beirach is also connected back to Bill Evans -- since he was one of Evans' protégés/students.  Edited January 11, 2021 by HutchFan Quote
jazzbo Posted January 11, 2021 Report Posted January 11, 2021 Bill Evans "Turn out the Stars" disc 4 I haven't played any of this box set in a while. I forget the bright velocity of some of these interpretations. Music bubbling with energy. Quote
