Martial Solal

Martial Solal – Live In Ottobrunn

Seine ersten Platten machte dieses Tastengenie schon in den 1950er Jahren mit Django Reinhardt oder Sidney Bechet. An Aufnahmen des Pianisten Martial Solal gibt es jedenfalls keinen Mangel. Und doch ist der „Oscar Peterson Europas“ immer für eine Offenbarung intestine.

Auch sein Ottobrunner Solo-Auftritt von 2018 besitzt etwas quick Überwirkliches. Was Solal hier mit uralten Jazzstandards wie „My Funny Valentine“ oder „Tea For Two“ anstellt – spieltechnisch, harmonisch, formal –, das katapultiert die Improvisationskunst Jazz in eine neue Umlaufbahn. Der in Algier geborene Franzose präsentierte sich mit 91 (!) Jahren um vieles frischer, freier, abenteuerlustiger, leidenschaftlicher und humorvoller als ein ganzes Dutzend junger Jazzpianisten zusammengerechnet.

Martial Solal Live in Ottobrunn

Seine Einfälle am Klavier explodieren. Spontan vermischt er in ihnen Blues und Expressionismus, Rhythmusetüde und Intervall-Experiment – immer pointiert, unerwartet, komplex und mit souveräner Jazz-Time. „Was man sagen möchte, kann man nur mit einer guten Technik sagen“, meinte Solal einmal lakonisch. Sein rund 40 Jahre jüngerer Klavierkollege Manuel Rocheman schreibt: „Solals Musik ist wie ein UFO. Sie hat einen futuristischen Aspekt, während sie zugleich auf die reine Jazztradition zurückgreift. Ein ständiges Update.“ Dass Solal kurz nach diesem Auftritt seine Konzerttätigkeit beendet hat, ist kaum vorstellbar. Hören denn die Sterne einfach auf zu funkeln?

VF Live: Scarlett O’Malley #3

“Today I’m taking you to the club.”

In VF Live, DJs take you inside their homes, record stores, and studios for intimate selects and mixes.

London DJ Scarlett O’Malley returns for her monthly VF Live residency with a house special traversing ’90s classics, minimal, and acid.

“I’m a little gutted that I didn’t ever get to experience the break of house when it was coming to fruition,” O’Malley says, “to have been at those illegal raves where you hit a phone box for the address and the massive warehouses. Everything seems very formulaic and clean these days, and I don’t like it! So a lot of these records, when I hear them, I think about their history, their roots, their place on the dancefloor.”

“Dancing to house music is inbuilt in my soul, so I wanted to reflect that in my records today,” she says.

Watch and listen to the set above, and check out the tracklist below.

Tracklist:

1. Lil Louis + The World – French Kiss (The Original Underground Mix)

VF Live: DJ Mihoko #3

A funk and soul set to inspire “happiness for everyone.”

In VF Live, our favourite DJs take you inside their homes, record stores, and studios, for intimate mixes and performances.

DJ Mihoko started out the mid-’90s as a founding member of Japan’s first female reggae sound system. Mihoko then began touring her home nation extensively, while taking occasional trips to Jamaica to cut dubplates.

Moving to NYC in ’98, Mihoko soon picked up a number of residencies and guest spots at venues such as the Limelight, Speed, Cheetah, Lotus, and 60 Thompson. Adapting to New York’s genre-spanning club scene, she began blending a wide variety of musical styles including hip-hop, soul, funk, disco, boogie, Afrobeat, and house, while still drawing heavily on her reggae roots.

For her third VF Live set, DJ Mihoko selects funk and soul tunes to inspire “happiness for everyone.”

Quoting lyrics from Sunbear’s ‘I Heard the Voice of Music Say’, Mihoko says “Life can be beautiful, make some music everywhere you go. Happiness is for everyone, pretty melodies can be so much fun.”
