'Extra-European' traditions meet jazz and minimal | | music. An unusual array of instruments turn music into a dialogue. | | For a unique record ... vivid, full of texture, somewhere between | | Midori Takada, Don Cherry and Jon Hassell. | | | | Beginning of the eighties, 5 musicians rehearse in a contemporary | | dance class hall, upstairs from the "New Morning", renowned Music | | venue in Paris. Nyssa Musique is born. Passionate for a long time | | about traditional music, like those of the Middle East, India and | | East Asia, but also about African traditions, they throw a bridge | | between Jazz and 'Extra-European' traditions, resulting in what would | | be called "Spiritual Jazz" today, a little bit in the style of Don | | Cherry's Organic Music or Pharoah Sanders. With the notable | | difference, however, that their creations are strongly infused by | | contemporary classical and repetitive music, notably Steve Reich's | | work with whom they share a great interest for the traditional | | cultures of Southeast Asia, particularly Indonesia and its gamelans. | | | | In the original group we have Armand Amar - ballet music composer - | | and John Boswell. Both specialists of traditional hand percussion | | which they had been studying for a long time in India and the Middle | | East, they are also very fond of synthesizers. Three other talented | | musicians quickly join them: Jean-Francois Roger, percussionist, | | marimba and vibraphone specialist, Henri Tournier, multi-flutist and | | Renaud Garcia-Fons, double bass player, who has a passion for the | | Middle East and has developed a virtuosic play of the bow, reminding | | that of Cecil Mc Bee. | | | | Each of them enriches the ensemble with their personality, | | originality and musical generosity. The rehearsal hall is rapidly | | invaded by the phenomenal instrumentarium put together by Armand | | Amar. A great opportunity for the musicians, for the dancers, to have | | access to an endless choice of instruments, offering infinite | | possibilities for mixing different colors and timbres. Their sense | | for being a group and their great capacity for improvising | | culminates, in 1985, in the composition of their first and only album | | Comme au Moulin ("As by the windmill"), testimony of years of | | creating without hidden agenda. | | | | Authentic, free and vibrant, still today, this album has no real | | equivalent. Even though it recalls the Fourth World current by its | | combination of traditional instruments with a subtle use of | | synthesizers, Comme au Moulin gives more space to improvisation. It | | may also recall those of Midori Takada, less the New Age esthetics. | | An album that should delight as well lovers of "Love Supreme" by John | | Coltrane, of "Vernal Equinox" by Jon Hassell, as those of Moondog, an | | artist who, like them, invented a music based on the use of untypical | | percussions, at the confluence of 'Extra-European' traditions, Jazz | | and Classical, all together complex and hypnotic. | | | | | | Armand Amar - congas, sanza, synthesizer, gong, tabla, percussion | | Renaud Garcia-Fons - double bass | | Henri Tournier - flute | | John Boswell - tabla, steel drums, marimba, gong, bata, percussion | | Jean Francois Roger - marimba, vibraphone, glockenspiel, gong, | | congas, tibetan bowls | | | | | | YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS SHIT IF YOU LIKE IT RIGHT?! | | | | | | . . | | |\/\/| | | |____| | |------------------------------=---=-======-=---=-------------------------| |===/\===============================SOUNDz==========================/\===| '--/__\--------------------------=-2013-2021-=----------------------/__\--'
