Phil Grenadier - Bruno Raberg Duo: Plunge
by AAJ Italy Staff
Se si escludono “Lonely Woman" di Ornette Coleman e “The Outermost Island" di Bruno Raberg la musica contenuta in Plunge è completamente improvvisata. In alcuni casi - “Area 51," “Triangulum," “Quadratic" - doppiamente improvvisata visto che Raberg al contrabbasso e Phil Granadier alla tromba interagiscono con la registrazione sviluppando nuovi spunti e tracciando nuove linee narrative. ...
Phil Grenadier / Bruno Raberg Duo: Plunge
by Ian Patterson
Maybe only a pirate radio station would be uninhibited enough to play duo improvisations such as these served up by trumpeter {Phil Grenadier and acoustic bassist Bruno Råberg. However, such mainstream disinterest should be considered a backhanded compliment and is perhaps reason enough to check it out. Plunge is an apt title for music inspired by ...

Phil Grenadier / Bruno Raberg Duo: Plunge
by Dan Bilawsky
Two men are responsible for every sound heard on the avant-leaning Plunge, but this record shouldn't be mistaken for a naked, take-me-as-I-am duo date. Bassist Bruno Råberg and trumpeter Phil Grenadier take full advantage of technology to create piquant aural landscapes that expand and expound on the very nature of man-to-man dialogue. This ...
Phil Grenadier / Bruno Raberg Duo: Plunge
by Chris Mosey
The inspiration for this album was saxophonist Ornette Coleman's “Lonely Woman." It gave Swedish bassist, Bruno Råberg, what he calls an “aural vision": “I 'heard' a rich, erratic, and busy soundscape in which the beautiful melody would live. I saw images of desolate streets and a lonely person's inner turmoil, conflicting emotions and despair."
Phil Grenadier / Bruno Raberg: Plunge
by Karl Ackermann
There are conspicuously few trumpet and bass duo recordings in the archives of jazz, though the rationale is not obvious. The sonic characteristics of the two instruments work surprisingly well in the hands of disciplined artists who emphasize the creative process over fireworks. Trumpeter Phil Grenadier, brother of bassist Larry Grenadier, is teamed with bassist Bruno ...

Plunge is a captivating CD that features the formidable duo of bassist Bruno Råberg and trumpeter Phil Grenadier. Each musician brings to the table their unique background and decades of experience: Råberg hails from Sweden, and in his twenties he played with the cream of Swedish jazz musicians, including trombonist Eje Thelin, pianist Bobo Stenson and ...
Phil Grenadier / Bruno Raberg Duo: Plunge
by Hrayr Attarian
Part adlib verse and part haiku poetry, Plunge is, above all, a study of sound and its ability to conjure images and emotions. A collaborative effort by Swedish born bassist Bruno Råberg and trumpeter Phil Grenadier, Plunge's nineteen short pieces range from intricately impressionistic to deeply expressive abstractions. On “Last ...
Phil Grenadier / Bruno Raberg Duo: Plunge
by Dan McClenaghan
Swedish-born and now Boston-based bassist Bruno Råberg explores meditative soundscapes with a flexible free improvisation approach in a variety of ensemble sizes. On Presence (Orbis Records, 2000) he featured a trio lineup. Chrysalis (Orbis Records, 2004) showcased an all-star nonet; and on his sprawling two disc Lifelines (Orbis Records, 2008) he employed a quartet. With Plunge ...

by Eyal Hareuveni
Trumpeter Phil Grenadier and bassist Bruno Råberg have collaborated for over ten years, including on Råberg's Ascensio (2003) and Chrysalis (2004), both on Orbis Music. For this intimate duo session, Råberg had a different vision: short, immediate and busy improvisations. Soundacapes, most of them were manipulated afterwards with different effects and three were “double duo" improvisations ...
