Evan Parker, a pioneer in the world of free jazz and avant-garde music, presents "Obliquities," a captivating exploration of sound and improvisation. Released on January 1, 1995, under the Maya Recordings label, this album is a testament to Parker's innovative spirit and technical prowess. Spanning a generous 75 minutes, "Obliquities" features nine tracks, each a unique journey into the depths of experimental jazz.
From the intricate interplay of "Marxbrüder" to the haunting melodies of "Belacqua," Parker's saxophone work is both virtuosic and deeply expressive. The album's avant-garde nature is evident in tracks like "Botta Segreta" and "Balestra," where Parker pushes the boundaries of traditional jazz, creating a soundscape that is as challenging as it is rewarding. "Ecliptic" and "Punta Reversa" showcase his ability to blend freeform improvisation with a sense of structure, while "Slope," "Lurch," and "Fleam" highlight his dynamic range and versatility.
"Obliquities" is not just an album; it's an experience. Evan Parker's mastery of the saxophone shines through in every note, making this a collection that demands attention and rewards repeated listening. Whether you're a seasoned fan of free jazz or a curious newcomer, "Obliquities" offers a rich and immersive journey into the world of avant-garde music.
