Yuji Takahashi / Sabu Toyozumi - The Quietly Clouds And A Wild Crane
Chap Chap Series
2022 release
NoBusiness strikes back with another album from the Chap Chap Series. This time is a live recording of the duo of Yuji Takahashi and Sabu Toyozumi, recorded at C*S*Aka Regna in Yamaguchi City in Japan in March 1998. Track 1 contains a wonderful suite in three movements "Lovely Silver 6,000 km". Track 2 is "Shoulder Blade And Hip Joint".
The combines free jazz at the highest possible artistic level with elements of free improvisation. Yuji's piano employs, obviously, traditions of Cecil Taylor or Alexander von Schlippenbach, yet is clearly very original and creative. He uses much more prepared and inside piano techniques, more typical for the contemporary classical music of John Cage. He employs also repetitive motifs, like in minimal music. The album as a whole is very interesting and dierent from anything I know.
