Description:

Das Jazz-Standard-Album â??Mesmerismâ?? des Schlagzeugers Tyshawn Sorey, ursprÃ¼nglich 2022 in kleiner Auflage im Eigenverlag verÃ¶ffentlicht, erhielt so fantastische Kritiken von Pitchfork, NPR, DownBeat, JazzTimes und Wall Street Journal, dass sich das Avantgarde-Label PI Recordings zu einer Neuauflage entschloss, die dieser Aufnahme, die weit mehr als eine FingerÃ¼bung Ã¼ber das Great American Songbook ist, ihre verdiente Aufmerksamkeit bescheren wird. Die Freude an der RÃ¼ckkehr zu den musikalischen Wurzeln ist Sorey und seinen Mitstreitern, dem Pianisten Aaron Diehl (CÃ©cile McLorin Salvant) und dem Bassisten Matt Brewer (SF Jazz Collective), mehr als deutlich anzumerken. -

Mesmerism is drummer and MacArthur Fellow Tyshawn Sorey's critically-acclaimed program of jazz standards featuring his swinging trio with pianist Aaron Diehl (Cécile McLorin Salvant) and bassist Matt Brewer (SF Jazz Collective). Originally self-released in 2022 by Sorey in a small pressing, the album nonetheless gained wide critical acclaim, with rave reviews in Pitchfork, NPR, Downbeat, JazzTimes and The Wall Street Journal, who called it "far more than an exercise in nostalgia; it advances contemporary trends." The release was voted #4 album of the year in the influential Francis Davis Jazz Poll of over 150 critics. Quite unlike Sorey's other works, which tend towards the cutting-edge, Mesmerism is a happy return to his musical roots: the joy of improvising over songs from the Great American Songbook as well as by some of his other favorite composers and practitioners of the art, including Bill Evans, Duke Ellington, Horace Silver, Muhal Richard Abrams, and Paul Motian.
