Release Notes:
?The acclaimed Cuban pianist and composer Arußn Ortiz, considered "an avatar of
creative and progressive improvisation" (Ted Panken, Jazztimes Magazine) and a
"first-rate" pianist (Nate Chinen, WBGO Jazz Radio), releases his solo piano
album titled äCub(an)ismô. This album was recorded by the engineer Martin
Pearson in December 2016 at the Swiss National Radio in Zⁿrich and produced by
Intakt Records.
"Cub(an)ism is the result of an in-depth conversation with a range of musical
idioms and styles, and various experiences from the phases of OrtizÆ life, in
Cuba, Spain, France and the USA, which have formed his eclectic concept of
music.
On this album, OrtizÆ pieces arise from specific ideas and moods, developed
imperceptibly along systematic constructions spiked with the unexpected. Despite
a certain adherence to system, the music on Cub(an)ism remains sensual at all
times. Using clear but flexible systems, the music lives from structure and
surprise. Crystalline structures are abruptly
dissolved, clear forms blurred like a reflection in stormy water, before
resurfacing. OrtizÆ music breathes this magic, the allure of dancing
structures".
(Florian Keller, liner notes)
Since his arrival to the international jazz scene, Arußn has played, recorded or
toured with Esperanza Spalding, Greg Osby, Andrew Cyrille, Cindy
Blackman-Santana, Terri Lyne Carrington, Oliver Lake, Don Byron, Rufus Reid,
Wadada Leo Smith, and Wallace Roney, to name a few.
