Excerpt
from the booklet:
Anything that can be said about Albert Mangelsdorff and
his trombone is maybe even more true of ALFRED 23 HARTH and
his saxophone: He uses his instrument to tell stories. (...)
He takes his listeners with him on his journeys, but does
not tell them beforehand what awaits them and what they should
expect. He astounds them - and sometimes seems to be astounded
himself - with the music his instrument and his performances
with various carefully chosen partners produces.
ALFRED 23 HARTH has an affinity to dadaism which makes itself
apparent in his anarchistic views, and in the choice of witty,
and often obscure titles for his pieces and in the names of
the groups he plays with. (…) The reason why the group featured
on this CD is called TRIO DE TRABANT A ROMA, for example,
remains a complete mystery, just like the 23 in HARTH´s name
or the title STATE OF VOLGOGRAD. (…)
This is not the first time ALFRED 23 HARTH has played with
the bassoonist and saxophonist LINDSAY COOPER and the singer
PHIL MINTON. (…)
This CD was recorded at the community center in the Dieselstraße
in Esslingen. Here, as in many other unattractive places in
the Republic, excellent jazz is presented all year round.
(…) One of its highlights has been recorded on this CD. |
