The work of free jazz titan David S. Ware seems to grow more refined, more ambitious, and more majestic as time moves on. RENUNCIATION (2007), featuring Ware's formidable quartet, is taken from a 2006 live date and contains eight compositions, each of which glows, morphs, startles, and seemingly reinvents the sonic stratosphere. Ware and company build structures that invite the listener in to witness dazzling displays of tension, engagement and release, and collective exploration in harmony and dissonance. The effects are entrancing, making RENUNCIATION a must for adventurous listeners and providing further proof that Ware is at the top of the free jazz game.

Renunciation album
 $13.85  
Since the beginning of the 21st century, David S. Ware's recordings have moved more toward the notion of composition than free-blowing improvisation. The album Threads is the most fully realized of his scoring attempts yet, and stands out from his catalog as a work of great innovation and emotional power. The David S. Ware String Ensemble is comprised of his quartet with William Parker, Guillermo Brown, and Matthew Shipp, and is augmented by microtonal violist Mat Maneri and classical maestro Daniel Bernard Roumain on violin. Ware's compositions are not subtle by jazz standards. They involve stridently stated rhythmic arrangements, such as those found on "Sufic Passages," which inverts and extends part of the line from John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme," and is eerily reminiscent of the intro statement of the 1960s Ramsey Lewis Trio with Maurice White in live settings -- check out "Hang on Sloopy," "Wade in the Water," or "Dancing in the Street" from Cadet Records for reference. Ware sounds nothing like Lewis, ...

Renunciation CD music
$9.39
The strongest recording by B Sharp to date, this outing finds the quartet (Randall Willis on tenor and soprano, pianist Rodney Lee, bassist Osama Afifi and drummer Herb Graham, Jr.) performing eight originals by the drummer/leader (two of which were co-written with Lee), Thelonious Monk's "Brilliant Corners," and an unusual version of "Confirmation." Although the latter is a bit routine, lightly funky and mostly dropping out the chord changes, the ...
| | Conrad Herwig Hieroglyphica CD (2001)
Renunciation music CDs
$14.79
Conrad Herwig follows up Unseen Universe with another all-original set, this time paring down to a quartet. It's not common for a trombonist to lead a small-group session as the only horn, but Herwig, with his technical facility, expressiveness, and timbral range, is uniquely capable of doing so. The pianist on the date is Bill Charlap, who's been gaining a reputation as a traditionalist and a champion ...
| | Quetzal Sing The Real CD (2002)
Renunciation songs
$15.05 
Quetzal has forged a signature sound out of Chicano barrio history and the challenges of daily life within an immigrant society. Not surprisingly, they draw heavily upon mariachi traditions, but also incorporate loping Colombian Cumbia rhythms, Afro-Caribbean-Yoruba drums, and violin riffs and call-and-response choruses more typical of Cuban charanga. Amusing '70s-era instrumental quotes abound, including cheesy jazz fusion keyboards; richly textured, overripe wah-wah guitars; and vintage Santana solos. The split-cowhide-clad ghosts of Weather Report, War, and Sly Stone also run amok through the grooves -- you can practically hear the Afros growing. Jamaican reggae, Nuyorican salsa, and doo wop provide further grist for this busy mill, but East L.A.'s modern hip-hop culture only surfaces as an occasional clipped snare beat. Ultimately, the band's jazz vocabulary has transformed their ethnicity into something musically universal. The earnestly conscious lyrics, sung in Spanish and English, address issues like female empowerment, political activism, and social justice. This is not mere lip service, as the band is heavily committed to local community outreach programs and is especially devoted to working ...
| | Eric Haydocy Next Guy In Line CD (2004)
Renunciation album
$10.09
The New Year's kicking off with the emergence of a major new voice,a Western Massachusetts songwriter whose debut disc is packed-to-the-max with gritty,guitar-based rock that's also filled with hooks,harmonies,power pop melodies and surging rhythms. The voice belongs to Eric Haydocy,and the 10-track album is a labor of love called "Next Guy In LIne". Haydocy and his mates spent five years working on this disc, which features an A-list band comprised of some of the best players in the region, dating back two decades. A native of Western Mass, Haydocy grew up in a house filled with music. His mother played guitar, his father played piano so the youngest rocker in the family soon learned the ultimate payback was to learn to play drums. He did, but it's his earthy, soulfyl and huge voice that drives this collection. The bulk of the songs on the album were penned by Haydocy and his primary collaborator, guitarist/songwriter Dave MacDonald, best known for his work with two of the region's preeminent 1980's bands, the Cardiac Kids and the Sighs. The unique partnership between songwriters of two generations is the driving force behing the disc, which blends ...
