Dive into the avant-garde world of Lucian Ban with his latest offering, "Oedipe Redux," a bold exploration of free jazz set to release on May 19, 2023, under the esteemed label Sunnyside. This 71-minute journey is a testament to Ban's innovative spirit, blending raw, unfiltered improvisation with a narrative inspired by the timeless tragedy of Oedipus.
"Oedipe Redux" is not just an album; it's a sonic odyssey through the complexities of human fate and the chaos of free jazz. The tracklist, featuring pieces like "Tirésias et Laïos," "Le crime, mort de Laïos," and "Couronnement et chute," weaves a tapestry of sound that mirrors the dramatic arcs of the original myth. Each track is a chapter in this story, with Ban's mastery of the piano driving the narrative forward.
The album's free jazz genre is a playground for Ban's virtuosic skills, allowing him to push boundaries and challenge listeners with his unique approach. From the haunting melodies of "Hécate, Hécate" to the intense, rhythmic drive of "Je mourrai dans la lumière," Ban's playing is both technically impressive and deeply expressive.
For fans of Lucian Ban and enthusiasts of free jazz, "Oedipe Redux" promises to be a standout release. It's an album that demands attention, offering a rich, immersive experience that showcases Ban's artistry and his ability to reimagine classical themes through the lens of modern jazz.
