| |
| Norwegian saxophonist Jan Garbarek cut his teeth emulating John |
| Coltrane and blowing gales through the muscular compositions of |
| George Russell and open improvisations of Keith Jarrett. But since |
| the mid 1980s, the saxophonist has been making an increasingly |
| rarefied and composed music full of chords suspended in space, |
| harmonies echoing in gothic recesses, and always, wrenching |
| saxophone melodies. In Praise of Dreams is his latest foray into a |
| music that reaches for the mystical. With just Garbarek, some |
| keyboard pads, light percussion from Manu KatchΘ and haunting |
| viola by Kim Kashkashian, In Praise of Dreams is instrumentally |
| sparse, yet deep in emotion and atmosphere. Based mostly on rhythm |
| loops, there's a hypnotic trance quality to Garbarek's |
| compositions, but also a tinge of nostalgia with Kashkashian's |
| wistful violin. You could be in a mediaeval stave church in Norway |
| or a Parisian cafΘ circa 1890. Atop it all are Garbarek's |
| saxophones. He builds many of his improvisations off Kashkashian's |
| viola, echoing her melody lines, then spiraling off with his |
| keening soprano saxophone hailing lamentations like a rainstorm |
| and his tenor calling out in a torrent of emotion barely leashed. |
| This isn't a jazz album in the traditional sense, but a tone poem |
| of memory and dreams. --John Diliberto |
