Kartet
Active since:
Apparently, an unsignificant formula. Usual orchestration. But then, surprise, as early as the first few bars, a freshness of inspiration which one believed to be condemned. To say simply, it's been a long time since a "jazz quartet" had sounded in a such an unorthodox way. Play-along with structure, tireless exploration of all possible combinations, independence of lines, poly-speeds, mobile architecture of the compositions... A shape of music in continuous metamorphosis as it pivots around the four players, and results in many simultaneous and complementary points of view on the same reality
Angel Bat Dawid, Barry Altschul & Kevin Sun

by Maurice Hogue
Lots of new things sampled in this episode with Chicago culture maker Angel Bat Dawid's Hush Harbor Mixtape: Doxology highlighting the bunch. She does everything on this one which is another chapter in her mission to, as she puts it, sonically eradicate the white supremacy system." A best-of for 2021 I think.

Kartet: The Bay Window

by AAJ Italy Staff
Monk, Lacy, Ligeti, nuove forme chicagoane ed intelligentissimi incroci fra jazz e avant-garde. Questo il menu proposto dai Kartet, quartetto atipico (questa la sostanziale traduzione del nome) nato a Parigi attorno agli inizi degli anni ’90, molto ben visto e supportato dai tipi di “The Wire”, come già detto, tra le più sagge riviste dedicate alla ...
Kartet: The Bay Window

by Jerry D'Souza
Hubert Dupont calls Kartet a demanding yet exhilarating collective research. The group honed these skills during a year-long residency in Marseilles just after the group was formed. The drummer at the time was Benjamin Henocq, but Chander Sardjoe, who joined them in 1996, fits in just right. The music is composed, but the freedom with which ...
