The Michel Wintsch Sextet have been responsible for some
formidable music over the years, much of it beginning in the
classical European tradition and ending up someplace else, and
that somewhere is different on each recording. Here, Wintsch in
his crazy wisdom decides on Bela Bartok as his starting point
for an investigation of Eastern European folk music, chamber
jazz, and the unmaking of Western tonalism in classical music,
and extending to jazz's tenet of improvisation the notion of
the dance. This is also the second part of a trilogy that began
with his expressionistic study of Ernest Hemingway's work and
milieu. Utilizing two trombones, a violin, bass, drums, and his
own piano and accordion, Wintsch -- like a Geroge Russell or
Franz Koglmann or Mikie Westbrook -- remakes the traditions of
all these musics in his own ear's image. Creating a series of
dances, sonata fragments, and exercises for all the instruments
to play at once, Wintsch reinvents the ideology of Bartok by
employing it strictly: a command, as Ezra Pound too, would say,
to "make it new." Here the Bulgarian folk traditions are
tranced over with a funky electric base, droning accordion, and
sweeping violins as the trombones create effective and haunting
contrapuntal narratives inside the harmonic line, not
necessarily to invert it, but to unmake it altogether. The jazz
element in the sextet is driven by a barely contained rhythm
section that extrapolates on dance rhythms and intervallic
considerations, making Wintsch's deeply arpeggiatic melodies
swing with off minor figures of pure transcendence and
guttersnipe greasiness simultaneously. Never has Bartok been
treated with such vulgarity, humor, and good taste. Bravo. ~
