David Binney - Edward Simon: Océanos
by AAJ Italy Staff
Gli oceani interiori di David Binney e Edward Simon, alto-sassofinista americano il primo ed pianista venezuelano il secondo, trovano spazio questa volta su un CD della casa discografica olandese Criss Cross (dopo che Fiestas de agosto e Afinidad erano stati pubblicati dalla italiana Red Records). Come su Afinidad ad accompagnarli ci sono Scott Colley e Brian ...
David Binney / Edward Simon: Oceanos
by Budd Kopman
Saxophinist David Binney and pianist Edward Simon have been playing and recording together a long time. The wonderful, accessible, and deep Océanos reflects their close musical relationship. The duo consider this release to be a continuation of Afinidad (Red Records, 2001) in that the music displays the range of musical styles that each brings to the ...
David Binney: Out of Airplanes
by AAJ Italy Staff
Laddove in Bastion of Sanity, il sassofonista e compositore David Binney portava probabilmente a compimento il personale percorso di rivisitazione e aggiornamento di quella nebulosa jazzistica definita neo-bop, in Out of Airplanes la virata verso strutture compositive più aperte ed un interesse sempre maggiore verso la componente elettrica/elettronica è netta e decisa. In questo senso la ...
David Binney / Edward Simon: Oceanos
by Michael P. Gladstone
Alto saxophonist David Binney has had a very active year. The well-received Cities and Desire (Criss Cross, 2006) was an intense and autobiographical album. Oceanos, co-led by pianist Edward Simon, offers a diverting and more satisfactory package. Simon and Binney go back a long way and have recorded together on various projects over the ...
David Binney & Edward Simon: Oceanos
by Glenn Astarita
Recorded in 2004 and released in 2007, this studio set provides another musical viewpoint set forth by the collaborations (2001's Afinadad, on Red Records) of pianist Edward Simon and saxophonist David Binney. With lithe supported from bassist Scott Colley and drummer Brian Blade, the music iterated here parallels the album title. Think of a soothing coastal ...
David Binney / Edward Simon: Oceanos
by John Kelman
Reconvening the same core quartet as on Afinidad (Red, 2001), altoist David Binney and pianist Edward Simon demonstrate how a collaborative effort can bear the distinct imprint of each musician while, at the same time, possessing its own indelible stamp. Binney and Simon have emerged, over the past decade, as leaders in an evolving musical context ...
David Binney / Edward Simon: Oceanos
by Mark F. Turner
Oceanos is the re-convergence of two dynamic musicians/composers: saxophonist David Binney and pianist Edward Simon. Both have many individual releases and recent works have earned glowing and deserved praise including Binney's Cities and Desires (Criss Cross, 2006) and Simon's Unicity (Cam Jazz, 2006). The recording is a continuation of fertile and fruitful ideas last heard on ...
Scott Colley: Music Architect
by R.J. DeLuke
Scott Colley can be found adding his big-toned, always appropriate contra bass to a number of settings. He's been a staple on the New York music scene for some time now, with older established musicians like Pat Metheny, Andrew Hill, John Scofield, Joe Lovano, Michael Brecker, Clifford Jordan, Herbie Hancock and many, many more. But also ...

David Binney: Cities And Desire
by Budd Kopman
David Binney is one of the few player/composers whose work is almost immediately recognizable: he has a personal approach, yet it ranges far and wide across musical styles. Paradoxically, Cities And Desire has as many differences with Binney's last release, Out Of Airplanes (Mythology, 2006), as similarities, and yet both are quite distinctly David Binney. Some ...
