Environment for Sextet
encounters
John Zorn
at the earliest stages of his career, resting within a sextet of a new generation of stunning improvisers emerging at the tail end of the '70s who would go on to define a vast swath of the '80s sound --
Polly Bradfield
on violin,
Andrea Centazzo
on percussion,
Eugene Chadbourne
on guitar,
Tom Corra
on cello, and
Toshinori Kondo
on trumpet -- it roughly builds on the series of collaborations that had featured on Centazzo's 1978 Ictus LP
U.S.A. Concerts
. Launching from a total wall of sound -- full throttle fire on the boundaries of outright noise --
Environment for Sextet
takes the listening on an endlessly surprising journey through its players' inner world, shifting between airy open passages that feature endless combinations of one or more players, to furious moments of sonorous lashings where the group falls in together in brilliant dialogical periods of conversant texture and tonal intervention. An engrossing and relentless listen from the first moment to the last -- featuring two works built from two of Andrea Centazzo's earliest graphic scores --
Environment for Sextet
is an absolutely stunning body of improvised work by what were then among the most important rising stars on the free music scene.
