Dive into the avant-garde world of Roswell Rudd with his 2009 release, "Trombone Tribe." This free jazz masterpiece, spanning 57 minutes, is a testament to Rudd's innovative spirit and his ability to push the boundaries of his instrument. The album, released under the Sunnyside label, is a collection of 15 tracks that range from the energetic "Fan Fare" to the contemplative "A Place Above" suite, showcasing Rudd's versatility and depth.
Rudd's trombone takes center stage, weaving through complex melodies and improvisations that are as thought-provoking as they are engaging. The album opens with "Elton Dean," a tribute to the late saxophonist, and closes with a reprise of "Fan Fare," creating a sense of full circle. In between, tracks like "Astro Slyde" and "Hulla Gulla" offer a glimpse into Rudd's playful side, while "No End" and "BONE AGAIN" delve into more introspective territories.
The "A Place Above" suite is a standout feature, with its four-part structure offering a journey through instrumental and vocal doxologies, and modal improvisations. This suite is a testament to Rudd's ability to blend different musical elements into a cohesive whole.
"Trombone Tribe" is not just an album; it's an exploration of sound and form, a celebration of jazz's endless possibilities. Whether you're a seasoned jazz aficionado or a curious newcomer, Roswell Rudd's "Trombone Tribe" promises a rewarding listen.
