QUOTE | Adventure Playground John Surman | ECM
Surman has recorded prolifically for ECM over the years. During the 1990s, he released solo albums and recordings with the Brass Project, the English quartet with Taylor, Laurence and Marshall, and with the Nordic Quartet.
He has also featured on two records with Paul Bley, Gary Peacock and Tony Oxley, and on the album, Thimar, with Anouar Brahem and Dave Holland.
Film scores for two Raphael Nadjari films ‘The Shade’ and ‘Apartment 5c’ featured in Surman’s output between 1999 and 2002. ‘Apartment 5c’ was recently released on DVD by mk2 editions.
Since 2000, Surman’s duo collaboration with Jack Dejohnette has been much to the fore, with two albums being released by ECM - the first ’Invisible Nature’ recorded live at the Tampere and Berlin Jazz Festivals and the second ‘Free and Equal’ in which the duo are joined by the10 piece chamber ensemble London Brass in a live concert recorded at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall.
His motet,’Under the Shadow’ commissioned by the vocal quartet Red Byrd received it’s first performance on BBC Radio 3 in December of 2002.
For the past three years Surman has been ‘Composer in Association’ with the Sarum Chamber Orchestra, a professional orchestra based in Salisbury UK. In 2002 they performed Howard Moody’s transcription of ‘Road to St. Ives’. In 2003 the Orchestra was joined by a choir of voices gathered from schools in the Salisbury area for the first performance of Surman’s ‘In All Weathers’. January 30th 2004 will see the premiere of John’s new composition in Salisbury City Hall . The piece, ‘Ultimate Voyage’is written for saxophone, piano and orchestra. JohnSurman is a perennial pollwinner, and in 1989 received the Bird Award at the North Sea Jazz Festival and a Wire Award for services to jazz in Britain. He was awarded an Honourary Doctorate in Music by Plymouth University in 1997 and the BBC voted him ‘Instrumentalist of the Year’ in 2002.
Surman's music transcends familiar boundaries. Although a deep love of the entire jazz tradition is an important element, he is equally affected by the melodic qualities of choral music and English folk music - "If I look back to what turned me on about music, it was what I heard before I ever came across any jazz." The surprise, and the enduring pleasure, of Surman's art is the contrast of simple, haunting melody, lush orchestral textures and intense improvisation. |
