详细介绍:
In 1994, saxophonist Joshua Redman (who was barely 25 years old at the time) had the idea of forming a new quartet and would join with three musicians from his generation whose talent was beginning to make serious headway in the small world of modern jazz (Brad Mehldau on piano, Christian McBride on double bass and Brian Blade on drums). The record they subsequently released, MoodSwing, was an instant hit and served as a catalyst for each of their careers, propelling them up amongst the rising stars of the young US scene.
After enjoying individual success, the four musicians decided to meet again 26 years later, in 2020, to record an album that would serve as a continuation of their last joint venture. RoundAgain was a pleasant surprise, devoid of any nostalgia or revivalist temptation. It did not simply pick up where the quartet left off 25 years ago, rather, it offered a new beginning – one enriched by the experience accumulated by each of the band members over their years apart. Their journey continues with the same spirit and energy in 2022, with the release of LongGone.
The tracks on this album all vary in form and mood, and the quartet develops a sound firmly anchored in a jazz aesthetic. Propelled by a rhythm section that boasts amazing organic fluidity, this album is just as rich and exciting as the last, and Joshua Redman demonstrates his stylistic palette throughout, flaunting a warm sonority, fluidity of phrasing and a consistent mastery of orchestral dynamics. Brad Mehldau, with his inimitable elegance, blends delightfully into the collective, cultivating a sound that remains accessible in spite of its sophistication. Achieving a synthesis between tradition and modernity that never sounds artificial, LongGone offers a remarkable glimpse of what 21st century jazz can be. © Stéphane Ollivier/Qobuz
