Reviews By Bruce Lee Gallanter http://search2.downtownmusic...cgi?item=2013_05_09_23_09_35 Recorded 18th June, 2011 at Kunstencentrum BELGIE & Cultuurplatform Motives for Jazz. Quat features Els Vandeweyer on vibes, Fred Van Hove on piano & accordion and Paul Lovens & Martin Blume on percussion. The instrumentation here is certainly unique: vibes/piano & accordion/two drummers. This quartet features two veteran Euro players: Fred Van Hove (with Brotzmann, Dunmall & several solo efforts) and Paul Lovens (Schlippenbach, Cecil Taylor & Dr. Chadbourne). I hadn't heard of their vibes player, Ms. Els Vandeweyer, before this but Martin Blume has worked with Frank Gratkowski, Luc Houtkamp & Phil Minton. This sounds like an all improv set and it is consistently fascinating. Free yet tight and focused. Since each member of the quartet is playing a percussion instrument (of sorts), there is a great deal of intense, spirited interplay. I had the good fortune to hear the legendary European pianist Fred Van Hove play duos with Lou Grassi twice last year. Mr. Van Hove is incredible and adds his unique touch and creativity throughout this disc. The interaction between the piano and vibes is especially magical as well as both drummers also add their own unique approach. -- By Colin Green http://www.freejazzblog.org/...e-at-hasselt-nobusiness.html By John Sharpe http://www.allaboutjazz.com/...ds-review-by-john-sharpe.php By Grego Applegate Edwards http://www.gapplegatemusicre...-hove-lovens-blume-quat.html Par Guillaume Belhomme (fr) http://grisli.canalblog.com/...ves/2013/08/31/27888746.html Sharing Widget |
