Notes
Mason Brothers Quintet: 'Two Sides, One Story' (2012) Growing up in Norwich, England, about 100 miles north of London, brothers Brad and Elliot Mason were immersed in jazz from an unusually early age. "We've been playing together since we were like four or five years old," says trombonist and younger brother Elliot. "So you could say that this debut is like our life's work within one album." Adds trumpeter and older brother Brad, "We thought about putting something out when we first graduated from Berklee and moved to New York [in 1996]. But we just didn't feel that we were ready at that point to do something that would stand the test of time and really be a good representation of us." Fast-forward 14 years and the brothers are now seasoned players on the NYC scene-Elliot having gained invaluable bandstand experience with the Mingus Big Band, the Count Basie Orchestra, the Maria Schneider Orchestra, and since 2007 as a member of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra directed by Wynton Marsalis; Brad performing with the likes of Natalie Cole, Mike Stern, Randy Brecker, Lionel Loueke, the Mingus Big Band, Chico O'Farrill's Latin Jazz Band, and since 2007 as a member of the John Mayer Band. The brothers have also played and recorded together in bassist Janek Gwizdala's electric band and in Serbian drummer Marko Djordjevic's Balkan-influenced group Sveti. They bring all of those varied musical experiences to bear on Two Sides, One Story, their auspicious self-produced debut. "Now we feel like we're in a different place, musically and personally," says Elliot. "So putting out this record really does mean a lot to us. Also, we feel so proud that we've done it all ourselves and we've done it the way we wanted to do it from start to finish." Considering their indelible tightness both as siblings and players, Two Sides, One Story is an apt title for the first recording by the Mason Brothers Quintet. Their psychic connection comes across in their remarkable call-and-response exchanges on striking originals like the surging modal number "24/7," the aggressively swinging, hard-boppish "Outside In," the poignant waltz-time ballad "Gone Home," the evocative "Evil Eye," and the stirring title track. "There is a lot of ending the other person's sentences when we play together," admits Brad. "We enjoy creating in the moment, that thing of, 'Oh, you're going to take it there? What about here then?' We like bouncing ideas back and forth to help take the music in new directions." Special guest Chris Potter joins the Mason brothers on tenor sax for two exhilarating romps through the John Coltrane-inspired "Stage Pints" (a clever anagram for "Giant Steps") and the up-tempo cooker "In the Third Person." Vibist Joe Locke also appears on "Gone Home," and guest guitarist Tim Miller wails with abandon on the darkly alluring "Evil Eye" while the stellar rhythm section of pianist Dave Kikoski, bassist Scott Colley, and drummer Antonio Sanchez fuels the proceedings with interactive fireworks. "We had our ideas of who we thought would be the perfect cast for this project, but we didn't think that we'd get them all in one room together at the same time," says Elliot. "And somehow we found a couple of days in September last year that worked for everybody. And when [engineer] James Farber said he was available at the same time, that just put the stamp on it. We knew we had to do it right then." Together they forge a formidable unit on eight scintillating originals by the brothers. "Compositionally, we aimed to balance tradition with something new while staying true to our own voices," says Elliot. "We wanted the album to have a classic feel with a fresh spin to it." They kick off the collection with the kinetic "24/7," which opens with allusions to John Coltrane's "India." Sanchez's polyrhythmic pulse sets the urgent tone as the brothers join for some brisk unisons on the frontline. The solo order of Elliot, Brad, and Kikoski is followed by some fiery

Envoi et livraison un peu longue. Avec 20$ je me serais attendu à un envoi et livraison plus rapide et surtout d'avoir le numéro de suivi. Côté communication, le vendeur n'a pas répondu à mon message quand je lui ai demadé où était ma commande.
Malgré ce petit détail long, le cd joue très bien comme s'il était neuf. Ce fut quand même un expérience positive en général.
