Louis Sclavis: Lost on the Way

Read "Lost on the Way" reviewed by John Kelman


Over the course eight albums, French clarinetist/saxophonist Louis Sclavis has carved his own niche on ECM. Every album possesses a different complexion--from the acoustic free play of Acoustic Quartet (1994) and aggressively open-ended variations of composer Jean-Phillip Rameau's work on Les Violences de Rameau (1996) to the more structured soundtrack for Charles Vanel's 1929 film, Dans ...

Louis Sclavis: Lost on the Way

Read "Lost on the Way" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


E' sempre un piacere mettere nel lettore un CD di Louis Sclavis. Anche a dispetto, come in questo caso, di un titolo fuorviante (Lost on the Way). Perché il clarinettista di Lione non è certo musicista che si perde per strada. La sua musica ha sempre una coerenza impeccabile, un senso della narrazione non comune. L'idea ...

Louis Sclavis: La moitié du monde

Read "La moitié du monde" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Disco doppio che raccoglie ben quaranta brani, provenienti da progetti realizzati da Sclavis per il teatro e il cinema. Un disco, quindi, se si vuole frammentario, lontano dai compatti e ambiziosi progetti a cui il clarinettista francese ci ha abituati. Eppure... Eppure questo lavoro, nel quale - per esplicita affermazione di Sclavis - si privilegia la ...

Louis Sclavis: L'imparfait des langues

Read "L'imparfait des langues" reviewed by Budd Kopman


L'imparfait des langues represents an attempt by reedman Louis Sclavis to challenge himself compositionally by incorporating new features into his working musical vocabulary while increasing the level of unpredictability. The resulting work is, perhaps surprisingly, the closest thing to a “jazz" album that he has produced. While encouraging change, Sclavis nevertheless has a ...

Louis Sclavis: L'imparfait des langues

Read "L'imparfait des langues" reviewed by John Kelman


Music has long been considered a universal language, with a syntactical potential as broad as the artists who create it. While it's not always easy to articulate in non-musical terms, it's the specific way concept is translated into sound that distinguishes any artist. Clarinetist/saxophonist Louis Sclavis has yet to record two albums for ECM with the ...

Louis Sclavis: L'imparfait des langues

Read "L'imparfait des langues" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Caratteristica opera di Louis Sclavis, questo L'imparfait des langue mette però anche in evidenza lo spirito di ricerca e di ridiscussione con cui il grande musicista francese si muove da sempre nel suo percorso artistico. Dopo alcuni anni durante i quali Sclavis ha sviluppato la propria poetica all'interno di un gruppo pressoché stabile sia nell'organico strumentale ...
