Because Ivo Perelman is so spiritual a player, it made perfect
sense when the Brazilian tenor/explorer turned his attention to
traditional Jewish songs on En Adir. This outstanding CD,
however, is far from a traditional Jewish album. Joined by
pianist Marilyn Crispell, bassist William Parker and drummer
Gerry Hemingway, Perelman takes more than his share of
liberties with "En Adir," "L'Shana Haba'a," "Avinu Malkenu" and
other songs that he transforms into avant-garde jazz. Perelman
is no stranger to atonality, but this time, he goes the
"inside/outside" route. Although some of the "outside" passages
are blistering, he pays a great deal of attention to melody and
sounds absolutely delighted by the melodies he's interpreting.
In fact, the title tune finds Perelman coming close to
mainstream post-bop and interacting with Crispell in a manner
recalling John Coltrane's work with McCoy Tyner in the
early-to-mid-'60s. The saxman has a major asset in Crispell,
whose pianism demonstrates that while Cecil Taylor is her main
influence, she's far from a mere imitator. En Adir is not only
one of Perelman's more accessible CDs, it's also one of his
best.
