Warne Marsh: Ne Plus Ultra

Read "Ne Plus Ultra" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff

by AAJ Italy Staff

Con una certa probabilità - e esclusi alcuni “cultori" - le informazioni saranno più o meno quella manciata: la militanza nel gruppo di Tristano, il cool, Konitz, poco di più. Beh, non che il nostro abbia fatto ...

Warne Marsh Quartet: Ne Plus Ultra

Read "Ne Plus Ultra" reviewed by Brad Glanden

by Brad Glanden

As a protégé of Lennie Tristano in the late 1940s and early 1950s, tenor saxophonist Warne Marsh learned lessons that shaped his playing until his death in 1987. He has inspired a cult following among musicians, particularly saxophonists seeking an alternative to the John Coltrane approach, and Ne Plus Ultra fully justifies his status as a ...

Warne Marsh Quartet: Ne Plus Ultra

Read "Ne Plus Ultra" reviewed by Nic Jones

by Nic Jones

The passing of time has done nothing to reduce the singularity of Warne Marsh's art, and this set, recorded at the end of the 1960s, is an excellent working definition. Marsh was always a musician for whom points of reference in terms of influences were never helpful. To say, for example, that he shared a certain ...

As a companion piece to the book by Safford Chamberlain of the same name, this CD traces the musical life of Warne Marsh, the brilliant Tenor Saxophonist, from 1945 to 1987.

Warne Marsh: An Unsung Cat the Life and Music of Warne Marsh

Read "An Unsung Cat the Life and Music of Warne Marsh" reviewed by Dave Nathan

by Dave Nathan

This Storyville release compiles both released and unreleased material by Warne Marsh made over a 42-year period. The album is an adjunct to a book of the same name by Safford Chamberlain who contributed the informative liner notes. Marsh's style and technique are reminiscent of Paul Desmond's cool alto. Like his personality, Marsh's playing is self ...
