Our Take

Paul Bley and Annette Peacock's "Improvisie" is a kaleidoscopic journey through the realm of avant-garde jazz, blending elements of free improvisation, experimental electronic sounds, and fearless creativity.

From the moment the first note hits your ears, you know you're in for a wild ride. Bley's piano playing is both delicate and explosive, weaving intricate melodies that seem to dance on the edge of madness. Peacock's vocals are equally mesmerising, with her ethereal voice floating above the chaos like a guiding light in the darkness.

The duo's chemistry is undeniable, with each track unfolding like a musical conversation between two kindred spirits. The improvisational nature of the album gives it a spontaneous energy, as if the musicians are creating magic in real-time before your very ears.

Standout tracks include the haunting "Moon," with its eerie melodies and ghostly vocals, and the frenetic "Chaos," which builds to a cacophony of sound before finding a sudden, unexpected resolution.

Overall, "Improvisie" is a bold and daring work of art that pushes the boundaries of what jazz music can be. It's a testament to the power of collaboration and experimentation, and a must-listen for anyone who craves music that challenges and inspires. Bravo, Paul Bley and Annette Peacock. Bravo.
