Michael Bisio / Hill,Timothy- Inside Voice / Outside Voice (CD)
The physicality of Mr. Bisio's bass playing puts him in touch with numerous predecessors in the avant-garde but his expressive touch is distinctive... - New York Times"...(Timothy Hill is) a virtuoso of the Tibetan chanting technique..." - New York TimesFrom classical music, a certain rigor in training & form, and respect for precedent; from jazz, spontaneity, invention and risk-taking; and from folk music, a resonance that rests in the bones and psyche and passes easily from one soul to another. Bassist Michael Bisio and guitarist/vocalist Timothy Hill have both lived in these lands. For these two, musical communication is not a matter of styles or genres, but of unique perspectives. This recording - made one afternoon in New York's Hudson Valley in one continuous, unedited take - was born out of affection for music and the magic that it makes, and for the musicians who have walked the not-always-easy path of dedication to their art. Included are three ballads from the Great American Songbook, and three standards by giants of improvised music: John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman, and bassist Henry Grimes.
Tracklist:
- Wise One
- My One and Only Love
- Transfigure
- Law Years
- I Fell in Love Too Easily
- Hearsay
- For Django
- Bridge
- For All We Know
