Forty candles to be switched off for a solid and irresistible trio like BassDrumBone, with Mark Helias, Gerry Hemingway and Ray Anderson.
They celebrate with a double disc with Jason Moran and Joe Lovano as a guest, a logical choice given the adventurous nature of both musicians, even in a context of continuity with tradition.
The music of the trio nourishes the basic elements of African-American language, rhythm, timbre, strong interplay: in this sense the synthesis, performed by musicians who in the decades have shared research and stages with explorers also very daring as Anthony Braxton or Wadada Leo Smith, notes a happy dialogue between what is “inside” and what is “out,” sound tension is always guaranteed by solid geometric bases.
What can we say more about Anderson, Helias and Hemingway in 2017 that has not been said yet? Maybe nothing, but it’s worth remembering how much the freshness of improvised practice (the last two tracks of the disc, live, give it some exciting moments) is a matter of aptitude even before age.
Greetings for more years like these, dear BassDrumBone!
