Simon Spang-Hanssen
Epistrophy Septet
Plutonic Eclipse
“Denne yderst vedholdende saxofonist, komponist og ikke mindst orkesterleder, som også gør sig udi billedkunst, har med sin seneste septet så at sige “malet” nogle fine rids over nogle af sine musikalske favoritter som Duke Ellington, Thelonious Monk, George Russell og Gil Evans samt lige så agtværdige instrumentkolleger som Wayne Shorter og Joe Henderson,
Foruden kapelmesteren høres en fyldig blæserfront, og en sej rytmegruppe, hvor alle er vægtige og med ubesværet overskud bidrager med at forløse de velskrevne kompositioners fine poly-tematikker, brede harmonikker, call ‘n’responses,mønstre ogriffs, soli og andre tricks.
Det er moderne jazz af den swingende art, der strækker sig fra sen 1950-erne og fremad med afstikkere til såvel afrikanske og syd-amerikanske anelser, som, når den eksemplificeres så levende, til hver en tid kan tituleres med et halleluja.”
T.S.Høeg, Jazz Special sep/nov. 2020
supported by : KODA and Danish Conductors Association
New music by the bandleader; inspirations from Th. Monk, Wayne Shorter, Duke, Joe Henderson, Gil Evans, Dave Holland, George Russell, Moacir Santos and many others…
