What Does Discobolus Reveal About Greek Value

2001/Tim Berne and the Copenhagen Art Ensemble with Herb Robertson and Marc Ducret/"Open, Coma"

Tim Berne and a group of talented musicians dropped a huge anvil of new jazz infected with features of contemporary music in this double CD of name Open, Coma. Apart from the typical jam with fixed rates, this large ensemble ventures to create an ambitious album with long instrumental developments, with enough momentum to discuss transitions between the freedom of free and structured academic and contemporary music. Moments of reflection and calm, prepared textures, atmospheres abstract individual Improvs discovered in a hard disk, thick, and that reminds me of Muhal Richard in their experimental stages, where the language of music does a complete turnabout.
