ECM Records Anouar Brahem: Blue Maqams
DESCRIERE
Anouar Brahem Oud
Dave Holland Double Bass
Jack DeJohnette Drums
Django Bates Piano
Recorded in New York’s Avatar Studios in May 2017 and produced by Manfred Eicher, Blue Maqams brings Tunisian oud master Anouar Brahem together with three brilliant improvisers. For Anouar Brahem and Dave Holland the album marks a reunion: they first collaborated 20 years ago on the very widely-acclaimed Thimar album. Brahem meets Jack DeJohnette for the first time here, but Holland and DeJohnette have been frequent musical partners over the last half-century beginning with ground-breaking work with Miles Davis – their collaborations are legendary. British pianist Django Bates also rises superbly to the challenge of Brahem’s compositions. And Anouar in turn is inspired to some of his most outgoing playing. Blue Maqams is a highlight of ECM’s autumn season. Live appearances by the quartet will follow in 2018.

For his intriguing new quartet album, ‘Blue Maqams’, master oudist Anouar Brahem enlisted two fellow legends and a veteran player whose profile is on the rise. […] Not only did Brahem find the perfect collaborator in Bates, he assembled a program of all original compositions that showcases the pianist’s gorgeous touch, with some passages featuring solo piano, as well as duo sections that highlight subtle, intelligent conversations between oud and piano. […] The result is a program that features traditional music from Arab culture as well as more modern jazz elements. Each musician shines here.
Bobby Reed, Downbeat, Editor’s Pick
‘Blue Maqams’ has no need to pound or poke, finding tranquility in the pragmatic acoustic formula and unblemished technique evinced by the quartet. In these disturbing times, nothing better than listening to music that is congenial, peaceful, and deeply felt. Anouar Brahem delivers all that and more.
Filipe Freitas, Jazz Trail
‘Blue Maqams’ will not only go down as one of the year's best ECM Records releases; it's a classic-in-the-making that should ultimately be considered one of the label's very best recordings in its nearly fifty-year history.
John Kelman, All About Jazz
This glitzy lineup features his bass-playing soulmate Dave Holland, drums star Jack DeJohnette, and a wild card in the form of the UK’s Django Bates on piano. The result achieves a spellbinding balance between gently melodic Mediterranean song forms and the one-touch rhythmic elasticity and melodic ingenuity of the best jazz. The presence of Bates (producer Manfred Eicher’s idea, Brahem never having heard the English maverick before) is an inspiration, for his lyrical restraint, creative spaciousness, and diverse references. […] It’s a real meeting of hearts and minds.
John Fordham, The Guardian
REVIEW-URI PENTRU VINIL ECM Records Anouar Brahem: Blue Maqams
Un album cu adevărat excepțional!
Must have this album!
Obligatoriu! Albumul asta trebuie luat si ascultat si reascultat si lasat deoparte si iarasi ascultat si reascultat. Vinilul suna excelent, ca orice ECM. Brahem e mult mai aproape de jazz aici, iar DeJohnette si Holland nu au mai sunat de multa vreme atit de consistent. Foarte faina imbinarea lui Brahem cu pianul lui Django Bates. Repeat!
