Saxophonist Jan Garbarek, bassist Miroslav Vitous and drummer Peter Erskine have been making records for ECM for a long time, both as leaders and as sidemen. They know each other's styles well, they're familiar with ECM label head Manfred Eicher's echo-drenched production tendencies, and they know how to turn jazz formulas into hip, lyrical romanticism. On this leaderless trio album, as with most ECM releases, you get the feeling of music emerging from a vast and echoey space; Erskine's Morse-code drum accents, Vitous' thrumming basslines and the plaintive cry of Garbarek's soprano and alto saxophones are far removed from what some would consider "jazz," but that's not the point. The tunes may be somewhat interchangeable, but the music is virtuosic, thoughtful and thoroughly lovely, at times heart-tugging. Makes you wish these three would get together more often. ~ Rick Anderson

Star songs
$19.65 A two-disc set featuring a DVD movie and its CD soundtrack.A combination of avant-jazz and avant-cinema produced, directed and edited by New York-based multi-instrumentalist/filmmaker Tom Abbs and based on his narrative and video graphic score. This is Frequency Response's second release, and features Abbs, violinist Jean Cook, cellist Okkyung Lee, multi-reedists Oscar Noriega and Alex Harding, and drummer/vibraphonist Chad Taylor."The Animated Adventures of Knox tells a story of innocence, treachery, madness and redemption," Abbs explains. "It depicts an internal struggle that nearly tears our hero apart: an escalating war of sound and color. Each character is represented by a single musician and is symbiotically tied into the dream-like visuals. From the perfection of Knox's infancy to the complex neurosis of his adulthood, the interaction of the characters and images fight for balance. ...

| | Pamela York The Way Of Time CD (2006)
Star CD music
$15.95 Listening to the music of Pamela York—from her CDs Blue York and The Way of Time, or in performance—is like having a conversation with her. Pamela audaciously invites her audience to enter her life for a moment in time—for she is also a daughter, sister, wife, mother, and friend. To Pamela York, what matters most is connecting with people as she tells a story through her music.It all began with her grandmother's piano. The powerful sound of an aging British upright piano may have been neglected in the basement, but it changed the life of a wide-eyed 8-year-old—especially after her parents surprised her with a piano of her own at their home in Nanaimo, British Columbia. Classical piano training commenced and several years later Pamela began to play at local jam sessions. During high school, her ear became enthralled with the sounds of jazz, especially Bill Evans and her fellow Canadians Oscar Peterson and Diana Krall. Since then, she has only looked straight ahead. In 2000, John Clayton and Jeff Hamilton joined Pamela on her debut album, Blue York, an opportunity not every emerging jazz pianist can boast.Her 2006 CD, The Way of Time, contains a mixture of blues, ballads, swing, and Latin grooves. Continuing her commitment to telling stories at the keyboard, Pamela offers six original tunes and six standards on The Way of Time with bassist Lynn Seaton, drummer Sebastian Whittaker, and guitarist Mike Wheeler. "Since we perform in and around Houston so often together, we were able to do eight of the 12 tracks in one take," Pamela says. "But since each member is such a good listener, the instinctive spontaneity of the music is captured, too, especially in the solos." The CD is perfectly titled, as its musical theme is the passing of time and the ways we change.The most notable transformation in Pamela's life in 2003 was the birth of her daughter, Anna Katherine, whose life is celebrated on The Way of Time. The blues shuffle, "Mama's Midnight Hour," reminisces on the rare nocturnal windows of privacy a mother can devote to her personal or professional goals once her child falls asleep. In the lyrical ballad, "All Too Soon (For Anna)," the conversation between the piano and ...
