''Livein Cognito'' is a double live album by saxophonist Tim Berne's Big Satan. It was released in 2006 on Berne's Screwgun label. Reception An All About Jazz review by John Kelman said "Dark and spacious in places, visceral, dense and penetrating in others, the impact of ''Livein Cognito'' can be heard in the audience's response. They may not always know how they're getting where they're going, but Big Satan fans can always be assured an intriguing trip".Kelman, J''Livein Cognito'' Review''All About Jazz'', December 28, 2005 A ''JazzTimes'' review by Mike Shanley said "The synergy of Big Satan—Berne, Ducret and Rainey—is on full display on ''Livein Cognito'', a two-disc live set. The herky-jerky and the ungrounded qualities of the music sometimes make things blend together".Shanley, M.Big Satan: Livein Cognito''JazzTimes'', May 2007 Track listing ''All compositions by Tim Berne except as indicated'' ''Disc One: Desperate'' # "Deadpan" - 10:59 # "L' Ombra Di Verdi" (Marc D ...

Tim Berne
Tim Berne (born October 16, 1954) is an American avant-garde jazz saxophonist and record label owner. His primary instruments are the alto and baritone saxophones. Biography Berne was born in Syracuse, New York, United States. He has said that he had no interest in playing an instrument until he attended Lewis & Clark College in Oregon. Hearing the album ''Dogon A.D.'' (1972) by Julius Hemphill turned his attention toward jazz. He was a fan of rhythm and blues, and it seemed to him that Hemphill was playing jazz with the soulfulness of R&B. In 1974, he went to New York to find Hemphill, who gave him saxophone lessons and advice on how to manage his career. Berne started the record label Empire in 1979. For Empire, he recorded four albums with avant-garde jazz musicians such as John Carter, Alex Cline, Nels Cline, Olu Dara, Vinny Golia, Paul Motian, and Ed Schuller. His next two albums appeared on Soul Note in the early 1980s. In these sessions he worked with trumpeter Herb Ro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Jazz
Jazz is a music genre that originated in the African-American communities of New Orleans, Louisiana in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with its roots in blues and ragtime. Since the 1920s Jazz Age, it has been recognized as a major form of musical expression in traditional and popular music. Jazz is characterized by swing and blue notes, complex chords, call and response vocals, polyrhythms and improvisation. Jazz has roots in European harmony and African rhythmic rituals. As jazz spread around the world, it drew on national, regional, and local musical cultures, which gave rise to different styles. New Orleans jazz began in the early 1910s, combining earlier brass band marches, French quadrilles, biguine, ragtime and blues with collective polyphonic improvisation. But jazz did not begin as a single musical tradition in New Orleans or elsewhere. In the 1930s, arranged dance-oriented swing big bands, Kansas City jazz (a hard-swinging, bluesy, improvisationa ...
