Legendary for his long term associations with
Bill Evans
,
Keith Jarrett
, and other icons from across the traditional
jazz
and
fusion
landscape,
Paul Motian
celebrated his 75th birthday in 2006 with a return (after a 13-year hiatus) to a cool concept he succeeded with three times before: unique and thoughtful approaches to songs made famous on Broadway. On the first three installments of the series (which began in 1988), he worked with the powerful trio of saxman
Joe Lovano
, bassist
Charlie Haden
, and
Bill Frisell
, but interestingly enough, his all-new lineup (including
Chris Potter
on sax,
Larry Grenadier
on bass, and
Masabumi Kikuchi
on piano) doesn't feature the guitar, which was one of the most appealing elements of the earlier trilogy. Nonetheless, these are thoughtful, sparse arrangements of songs that range from some everyone knows (including a very ambient, spacious arrangement of
"I Loves You Porgy"
and a sensual vocal version -- sung by
Rebecca Martin
-- of
"How Long Has This Been Going On"
) to others whose
show tunes
origins may have been forgotten.
Martin
's smoky voice and
Potter
's wide range of emotional sax tones are the highlights of this low-key, sensual affair. ~ Jonathan Widran
