about

Since the release of the albums "The Unbearably Light" and "The Voyage", Garrett List is now in a more productive phase.
It’s in this context that the idea came about to present "The New York Takes", as a retrospective view of the importance and the diversity of the compositions of this extraordinary trombone player.
The recordings on the CD date back to the 70’s and highlight Garrett List’s more Jazz side.
The album is a selection from two New York studio sessions which have never been released.
The music on this unique recording has a warmth and spontaneity which is difficult to find today.
The choice of musicians is the key to the success of the album, and it is clear that some of them have since become key figures in the Jazz world.
Eugenia Sherman’s singing is divinely creative, with a kind of aerial freshness.
The rhythm sections, including Ronald Shannon Jackson on drums, are very tight and put more of an emphasis on ambiance than on technical performance.
And the soloists, including Byard Lancaster, Keshavan Maslak and Youssef Yancy, go from intimist moments to a series of explosive outbursts.
At the end of the album there is "Elegy", composed at the same period but recorded in 1999 with Garrett’s current musicians.
The piece gives us a vision of Garrett List’s present on future recordings.
The spirit of this piece is radically different from the New York recordings and conveys a feeling of peace.
Althrough it is a written piece, the composition involves improvised elements, but its essence is in its colour and spacial development.
An approach more like Erik Satie or Olivier Messiaen tan the masters of Jazz.
From now on there are no limits - the criteria of style slip into the background and leave room for music in its widest sense.
