【爵士萨克斯】美国爵士爵萨克斯风乐手Ron Blake 2008专辑《Shayari》　（MP3 320K）












"Shayari" is essentially a two hander from Ron Blake (saxophone) and
Michael Cain (piano/ producer) with star support from Christian McBride
(bass), Jack DeJohnette (drums), Regina Carter (violin) and Gilmar Gomes
(perscussion) added sparingly and just where required. The overall feel
is somewhat similar to the 'less is more' approach of Marty Ehrlich and
Myra Melford's recent album "Spark!" and has the same virtue of leaving
space for the imagination to work on its evocative themes. Only here all
but one track is a different trio chosen as Ron Blake and Michael Cain
plus one of the above musicians.

The title refers to a Hindi or Urdu short form of poetry not dissimilar
from the better known Japanese Haiku. For some examples see this blog.
The attempt of such poetry to convey universal understanding within an
extreme simplicity is a very apt metaphor for the approach taken in this music.

The trio with Christian McBride "What Is Your Prayer For?" is a clear
winner for out and out beauty while the trio with Jack DeJohnette "Hanuman"
wins the day for drive and intensity. Regina Carter's feature on violin
('"Of Kindred Souls") features fine almost dissonant harmonies with saxophone
before settling into a satisfyingly bluesy groove. Some of the most memorable
tracks ("Waltz For Gwen", "Come Sun" and "The Island") feature percussionist
Gilmar Gomes as the third musician and this seems to be particularly in keeping
with the shayari theme. "Remember The Rain" is a short Coltrane–like sax/piano duet.

The album is memorable, very cool and likely to put Ron Blake and Michael
Cain fully on the map as a major creative jazz partnership.
