Marilyn Crispell - Amaryllis
Return of the great American jazz trio that delivered the poll-topping
"Nothing Ever Was, Anyway" in 1997. Material heard on "Amaryllis" is by
turns thoughtful, touching, joyous and viscerally exciting. Some of the
songs are well known - almost classics of new jazz - including
Crispell's "Rounds", Peacock's "Requiem" and "December Wings, Motian's
"Conception Vessel". There are also a number of startlingly effective
free improvised ballads. As leader Marilyn Crispell says, "There's a
great depth of communication, a rare delicacy. " Interaction between the
musicians is exceptional.
