We Say...
Fieldwork stretch and in some instances shatter all notions regarding what constitutes both mainstream and avant-garde jazz, eschewing blues, ballads, hard bop and reconfigured show tunes. Pianist Vijay Iyer, alto saxophonist Steve Lehman and drummer Elliot Humberto Kavee craft intense, compelling and often startling music emphasizing collective interplay as much as, if not more than, free-wheeling instrumental monologues. Certainly pieces like Iyer's bustling "Headlong," which blends Asian music references and odd time signatures with gorgeous keyboard phrasing, or the magical "Telematic" that smartly combines slashing drumming, a swirling, declarative alto statement and more frenetic piano, embody the experimental sensibility of outside material. But all three players are both virtuoso soloists and great accompanists, and these pieces carefully balance individual contributions and group performances. The results are delightful and memorable, if often unorthodox.
