| | Scott Rosenberg El CD (2003)
Ni Project CD music
$16.19 A student of Anthony Braxton, Scott Rosenberg learned his master's lessons well, and from the opening notes on this album Braxton's presence is clearly felt. Some of the pieces such as "Tddk" emerge from the school of "ghost trance music," with unending angular phrases that stick in the craw. Others veer in different directions, but through it all there is a splendid stew of carefully crafted notated and improvised portions, a limitless feast. Rosenberg calls his quintet the Skronktet West, all of whose members the saxophonist has performed with regularly, and the level of detail and focus is evident. While outwardly the instrumentation is hardly revolutionary (two reeds plus rhythm, with the guitar substituting for the piano), the actual sounds often have a chamber-like quality charged by the freestyle improvisations and the abstract composing. With this album, Rosenberg reaffirms his emerging status as a significant free improviser and writer, shedding some of the excess abstraction of his earliest recordings and infusing his works with humor. His solos take on qualities of a man in a rush who knows where he is going but has no time to dawdle. Rosenberg's launching points take a cue from Braxton, yet he is careful not to clone but to embrace, and the results attest to Rosenberg's ability to maintain his individuality. John Shiurba is a remarkable guitarist, and he contributes significantly with his offbeat playing, as does percussionist Gino Robair. There is electricity in the air and Rosenberg exploits it fully, creating a stunningly sophisticated album that is as fun as it is serious, fulfilling what George Gruntz terms "serious fun." ~ Steven Loewy
Morgan Guberman, Contrabass Matt Ingalls, clarinet Gino Robair, Percussion Scott Rosenburg, Reeds John Shiurba, Guitar Recorded April 14, 2001, at Boomtown in Sausalito, Ca. What the Critics are Saying: Rosenberg's compositions are as thorny and challenging as their titles ("Shrrr", "Sdppd", "Sttm"...) - his scores leave much room for improvisation, but also present fiendish problems of ensemble coordination, which are brilliantly handled by the Skronktet West. It's nothing less than a supergroup of sorts - in addition to Rosenberg's saxophones and contrabass clarinet, the quintet includes clarinet virtuoso Matt Ingalls, guitarist ...

| | Caravan Great Dreamer CD (2006)
Ni Project songs
$16.45 As a writer I like to write about everyday experiences and people in ways that find the extraordinary in the ordinary. For me, if you are awake to your senses, the connection between the awesome beauty of our lives in relationship to the cosmos is a natural. This is what drives my creativity. In this new CD The Great Dreamer the songs lead the way and take Caravan even further into the exploration of new musical terrains. These are songs that resonate and stay with you, with virtuoso moments from soulful musicians, and pulsating rhythms to get you trancing or dancing.The lyrics to the title cut "The Great Dreamer" speak to the interplay of our personal creative endeavors nestled within the creative endeavors of the Divine, i.e. The Great Dreamer. I love this song! I feel fortunate to have a band of ragged angels willing to flesh out the songs that I bring to rehearsal. Listen to the newest band member Victor Revere's bass line on this tune, his mysterioso touch brings the song to its fullness."Slow Vibration" was inspired by a trip to Costa Rica. Volcano Arenal's primal presence left an indelible imprint in my psyche and I dreamed about her for many weeks after my return. I superimposed this tropical experience against the news I was hearing from home, the craziness of the war we had embarked upon in Iraq and the wonder and excitement of landing on the planet Mars with our rovers. I mused about what the future held for our children and their children."The Park" is pure nostalgia. A time many years ago when I identified as a flower child, so willing to give my self fully to whatever touched my deep need to feel free and alive. In this way Charlotte and Lenny are archetypal, you can see them on the streets of Santa Cruz on any given day."Dreams of Reunion" was inspired after the death of my father. Watching my mother grapple with her sorrow and the process of reinventing herself. And of course my own need to sing out in prayer with the ancient chorus.Keyboardist ...

| | Toninho Horta To Jobum With Love CD (2008) Digipak
Ni Project CD music
$13.55 Toninho Horta has been a reliable sideman and occasionally a leader in his lengthy career playing contemporary Brazilian music. The acoustic and electric guitarist has a quiet intensity that reflects the passion and verve of genius composer Antonio Carlos Jobim. This tribute to Jobim is quite laden with string charts, most done quite tastefully, rarely overarranged, and pleasantly emphasizing a flute section. Horta has an impressive complementary combo of pianist Dave Kikoski, bassist Gary Peacock, percussionists Paulo Braga and Manolo Badrena, special guests as saxophonist Bob Mintzer, harmonicist William Galison, trumpeter Glenn Drewes, Charles Pillow on oboe, John Clark on French horn, and several members of the large Horta family. Gal Costa sings in a choir, or individually for the CD's sweetest and beautiful moments - where flutes accent ...
