A premiere duo binaural release featuring jazz aficionados Mark Sherman and Kenny Barron (the tenth in the illustrious career of Kenny Barron and Mark Sherman’s second with Chesky Records), Interplay is the blending of two generations of musical practitioners of the highest caliber. Lending their own unique verve and ingenuity to nine jazz standards and two original pieces, Sherman and Barron, both professors at Juilliard, teach us all a thing or two about the genre we call Jazz.

June Tabor, Iain Ballamy, Huw Warren – Quercus (2013) [Official Digital Download 24bit/44.1kHz]

June Tabor, Iain Ballamy, Huw Warren – Quercus (2013)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/44.1 kHz | Time – 59:31 minutes | 556 MB | Genre: Jazz
Official Digital Download – Source: highresaudio.com | @ ECM Records GmbH
Recorded: March 2006 by Paul Sparrow. Mixed at Rainbow Studio by Jan Erik Kongshaug and Manfred Eicher

‘Quercus’ means ‘oak’ in Latin and the roots of this particular tree dig deep into British folk music, while leaves and branches reach upward to embrace jazz-inspired lyrical improvising. The trio features the venerable English singer June Tabor whose dark voice has an uncanny ability to underscore the emotional essence of a ballad: “As I get older, I understand more the depths of sorrow and joy that made the song”, she has said. Tabor, who was recently voted BBC Folk Awards Singer Of The Year, is joined in the Quercus project by Welsh jazz pianist and composer Huw Warren, and by English saxophonist Iain Ballamy, well-known to ECM listeners as co-leader of the band Food. This is the first Quercus album but the trio has existed already for seven years, patiently developing its unique idiomatic blend.

Julia Hulsmann Quartet & Theo Bleckmann – A Clear Midnight / Kurt Weill And America (2015) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Julia Hulsmann Quartet & Theo Bleckmann – A Clear Midnight / Kurt Weill And America (2015)
FLAC (tracks) 24-bit/96 kHz | Time – 01:07:58 minutes | 1,39 GB | Genre: Jazz
Studio Master, Official Digital Download |  Source: Qobuz | @ ECM Records GmbH
Recorded: June 2014 at Rainbow Studio, Oslo

Pianist Julia Hülsmann and singer Theo Bleckmann, in a first – and long-awaited – collaborative recording, celebrate the “unsung Weill” alongside the master’s best-loved works including “Mack The Knife”, “Speak Low” and “September Song”, adding also Julia’s settings of Walt Whitman, with whom Kurt Weill felt an affinity. The project came together at the instigation of the Kurt Weill Festival in Dessau in 2013 and since then has gained new life on the road and been fine-tuned in this studio recording made in Oslo in June 2014 with Manfred Eicher as producer. It marks a musical advance for the Hülsmann group at a number of levels, and these recastings of Weill open up new imaginative possibilities for the players. English trumpeter and flugelhornist Tom Arthurs, who made his debut with Hülsmann on In Full View is fully integrated on A Clear Midnight. Often his trumpet doubles or underpins Bleckmann’s singing, giving a new colour to the vocals. As for Theo Bleckmann, this is the sensitive vocalist’s first ECM appearance as a jazz singer, although he has recorded twice for the label as a member of the Meredith Monk ensemble on “Mercy” and “Impermanence”.

Jokleba – Outland (2014) [Official Digital Download 24bit/96kHz]

Jokleba – Outland (2014)
FLAC (tracks) 24-bit/96 kHz | Time –00:47:29 minutes | 820 MB | Genre: Jazz
Studio Master, Official Digital Download |  Source: Qobuz | @ ECM Records GmbH
Recorded: May 2014, Madstun, Fall / Rainbow Studio, Oslo

The Norwegian trio Jøkleba was formed in 1990, establishing itself as one of the most unpredictable groups on the Scandinavian scene. The present disc – the fifth Jøkleba album, but the first for ECM – finds old friends Jørgensen, Balke and Kleive working with pulse and colour and texture in collective music-making, emphasizing electronics, trumpet and voice, in freely created pieces which hint at relationships between inspiration and instability. Track titles make reference to writings by Sylvia Plath, Laura Restrepo, Sadegh Hedayat, Guy de Maupassant and Ken Kesey, in particular to their descriptions of the disintegration of identity, “the human mind when it gets lost”, as Jon Balke puts it. All three musicians have recorded prolifically for ECM in a wide variety of contexts, but the particular chemistry of Jøkleba is unique unto itself.

Iconic vocalist Jimmy Somerville, lead singer of Bronski Beat and The Communards, pays tribute to his roots in dance music on Homage, a collection of 12 original disco tracks. While working with his friend and the record’s producer John Winfield, Somerville was inspired to turn all the songs they were writing into disco. Famous for reimagining disco classics as his own, such as You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real), Never Can Say Goodbye? and Don’t Leave Me This Way, to name but a few, Homage is a logical next step in Somerville‘s career, one at which he can only excel considering his background, passion and distinctive vocal talent.

“The drummer is the boss of the band, not the bandleader,” Count Basie once said. “If the drummer’s not right, nothing’s happening.”
That is as true of a small group as of a big band, but audiences have not always recognized it, the importance of the drummer often being obscured by a lot of razzmatazz going on in front of him. Yet, paradoxically, audiences have always loved drum solos, good, bad and indifferent.
