While a band co-led by three celebrated
saxophonists might suggest Kansas City's
swing-era cutting contests, this meeting
of Michael Brecker, Dave Liebman, and Joe
Lovano is something very different.
Gathering of Spirits invokes the
collective vision and apocalyptic
energies of John Coltrane's 1960s
meetings with exploratory saxophonists
like Eric Dolphy and Pharoah Sanders. The
opening "Alexander the Great" finds the
three limbering up at a relaxed tempo,
while pianist Phil Markowitz's "12th Man"
is a gorgeous modal tune that recalls
Miles Davis's Kind of Blue. With
Coltrane's "India," though, the band's
power begins to assert itself, gathering
further force in the lyric intensity of
"Peace on Earth" (another Coltrane tune)
and concluding in the roaring overtones
of Brecker's title composition. Propelled
by bassist Cecil McBee and drummer Billy
Hart, Brecker, Liebman, and Lovano
inspire one another to touch on the roots
and branches of their individual
creativity. --Stuart Broomer
