Re: gismonti




Have you heard Keith Jarrett on "The Survivors Suite?"
his piano is really beautiful and reflective.
having Charlie Haden on upright bass doesn't hurt either!!
 
of course one must be VERY careful as to what Jarrett to buy over the years
LOL

only few other musicians have made me as happy as egberto gismonti.
he has written some joyful and simple yet harmonically enthralling pieces that
made my heart dance on a regular basis.
my favourite tune of his is
Loro (The Parrot)

fantastic piano solo piece

>> Gismonti is so amazing, though I only heard him for the first time
this summer. I like recommendations! I reach for his stuff over Fahey - other
than his unique dark vibe and some interesting harmonic directions, he's
largely lost on me (ducking) - but that's just taste. Like Charlie Parker,
Mozart, and Townes Van Zandt, I acknowledge the influence, but rarely want to
listen to the music.
