New Ears Album of the Year per the Collective:1. Tyshawn Sorey – Pillars (Firehouse 12)Lee Rice Epstein, in his review of Pillars writes: Okay, yes, the album is massive, thick and heady, with ideas atomically colliding. But it’s also music to simply listen to, which is one aspect of Pillars that shouldn’t be ignored. You can dive headlong or simply dip in and out of the album, let the music filter in from wherever it’s playing, leave the room and come back at a wildly new section. Much like Max Richter’s similarly beautiful Sleep, perhaps you’ll never listen to the whole album straight through. But it’s not enough just to know it’s there when you need it, you have to start by letting it in. 2. Peter Brötzmann / Heather Leigh – Sparrow Nights (Trost Records)
1. Biliana Voutchkova / Michael Thieke – Blurred Music (Elsewhere) Compositional and improvisational strategies become insignificant when listening to Blurred Music. Voutchkova and Thieke offer an arresting journey through sounds within sounds, increasing their and ours, the listeners, sensitivity of perception. Their sonic explorations are sketched with quiet intensity, reserved but passionate dynamics, adventurous, inventive spirit and austere beauty.2. Tyshawn Sorey – Pillars (Firehouse 12) 3. Marker – Roadwork 1 / Roadwork 2 / Homework 1 (Audiographic) 4. Peter Brötzmann / Heather Leigh – Sparrow Nights (Trost Records) 26 5. Henry Threadgill – 14 or 15 Kestra: Agg - Dirt... And More Dirt (Pi Recordings) 23 6. Dave Holland – Uncharted Territories (Dare2 Records) 23 Congratulations to all of the musicians, thank you for helping us make it through another strenuous year! from www.freejazzblog.org
