Product Description

Next to John Coltrane, Michael Brecker's career spans more than three decades – and is unquestionably one of the most influential tenor player in the history of jazz. As a result of his stylistic and harmonic innovations, he is the most studied contemporary jazz musician in music schools throughout the world today. Sadly, after a two-and-a-half-year battle with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and leukemia, Brecker passed away on January 13, 2007.

'Pilgrimage', chronicles Brecker's final journey – one in which the music itself served as a sustaining force. Those present in the studio recall moments when the rigors of recording were so physically taxing – nearly to the point of collapse – for the leader whose health was compromised. In the end, it was Brecker's sheer will, and a dedication to completing the recording, that pushed him, his colleagues and the project as a whole across the finish line.

'Pilgrimage' is a singular phenomenon in the annals of recorded music. It's a consummate creative statement with a vision that speaks to us from a place we can't comprehend. It's an invitation to take the spiritual journey of an artist whose legacy will outlast us all.

マイケル・ブレッカーの遺作・・ Pat　Metheny，Herbie　Hancock，Brad　Mehldau，John　Patitucci， Jack　Dejohnetteという超一流が超一流のプレイで最後を飾る。嬉しい事にＳＡＣＤハイブリッドでも発売。立体感、細かなディティールや空気感はＣＤを遥かに凌駕する。ＤＳＤマスタリングはＭａｒｋ　Ｗｉｌｄｅｒ。

かっこいい! こんなの初めて見た! 入れ物のプラスチックケースのことですけれども。ところで、演奏は、本当に、個性的! マイケルはマジずば抜けている。誰の真似でもないテナーを吹いていると思う。だけど、その個性が、音楽家ではないリスナーが聞いて楽しめるものかどうかは別問題。たぶん、音楽ができる人は、聞いて素晴らしいと思うんだろう。
