+ Ron Miles, Greg Tardy, Jenny Scheinman, Eyvind Kang u.a.
Einer der einflussreichsten Gitarristen im zeitgenössischen Jazz! Er spielte sowohl mit Jazz-Größen wie Ron Carter und Paul Motian, John Zorn oder Elvin Jones, als auch mit Pop-Stars wie Marianne Faithful, Elvis Costello oder Ginger Baker von Cream. Er ist GRAMMY-Gewinner und ausgezeichnet mit dem Deutschen Schallplattenpreis. History, Mystery wurde von Lee Townsend produziert, mit dem Frisell erst kürzlich wieder beim Improvisations-Quartet Floratone zusammenarbeitete. Frisell wird von Eyvind Kang (Viola), Ron Miles (Kornett), Hank Roberts (Cello), Jenny Scheinman (VFioline), Tony Scherr (Bass), Greg Tardy (Klarinette, Tenorsaxophon) und Kenny Wollesen (drums) begleitet. Einige der Titel wurden für Mysterio Sympatico geschrieben, ein 70-minütiger Multi-Media Dialog zwischen Frisell und dem ebenfalls in Seattle wohnhaften Künstler / Comic-Autoren Jim Woodring, Andere Stücke des Albums sind Beiträge, die Frisell für die 6-teilige Radio-Sendung Stories From The Heart Of The Land eines Öffentlich-Rechtlichen Senders geschrieben hat.
Grammy Award–winning guitarist, composer, and bandleader Bill Frisell’s History, Mystery was released on May 13, 2008. After back-to-back trio albums, this two-disc set finds Frisell performing and recording again with a large band.
History, Mystery features an octet of strings, horns, and rhythm section with some of Frisell’s closest collaborators—Jenny Scheinman (violin), Eyvind Kang, (viola), Hank Roberts (cello), Ron Miles (cornet), Greg Tardy (clarinet and tenor saxophone), Tony Scherr (bass), and Kenny Wollesen (drums). History, Mystery debuts many recent Frisell compositions as well as a few of his arrangements of favorite pieces by other songwriters, ranging in style from soul pioneer Sam Cooke to jazzmen Thelonious Monk and Lee Konitz. Producer Lee Townsend and engineer Shawn Pierce recorded the group in various combinations and contexts, live and in the studio.
The original compositions on the album were born from and inspired by collaborations with visual artist and fellow Seattle resident Jim Woodring. One such collaboration, “Mysterio Simpatico,” was premiered at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn in June of 2002. The two later presented “Probability Cloud,” which appears in parts on the first disc, at Zankel Hall in New York in January of 2006. In a review of the performance, the New York Times wrote, “Both Mr. Frisell and Mr. Woodring make the familiar unfamiliar. In Mr. Frisell's compositions, cozy, archetypal Americana—country tunes, blues, waltzes—is slowed down, melted at the edges, eerily reharmonized or disassembled and contemplated part by part.”
Townsend says, “History, Mystery explores a fuller palette of orchestral colors and timbres than for any project Bill has done before. Thematic elements recur throughout the album, furthering its symphonic sensibility.”
In a career that spans more than 30 years and 100-plus recordings, Bill Frisell has been hailed by the Washington Post as “not only one of the most inventive jazz guitarists of his generation, but also one of the most versatile and prolific.” The Philadelphia Inquirer writes, “like Miles Davis and few others, his signature is built from pure sound and inflection; an anti-technique that is instantly identifiable.” Frisell’s recordings over the last decades span a wide range of musical influences, from Buster Keaton film scores (The High Sign / One Week, Go West), to Gary Larson cartoon soundtracks (Quartet), to original compositions for extended ensemble with horns (This Land, Blues Dream) and collaborations with the acclaimed rhythm section of bassist Viktor Krauss and drummer Jim Keltner (Gone, Just Like a Train and Good Dog, Happy Man). Other releases include an album with Nashville musicians (Nashville), the solo album Ghost Town, an album of his arrangements of songs by Elvis Costello and Burt Bacharach (The Sweetest Punch), a trio album with jazz legends Dave Holland and Elvin Jones, and a collection of American traditional songs and original compositions inspired by them entitled The Willies. Unspeakable, produced by Hal Willner, won a Grammy in 2005. DownBeat has cited his catalog, including more than 20 recordings for Nonesuch, as “the best recorded output of the decade.”
