Free Music Notes for Migration
Free Music Review: Maybe too much sax
Hit: 4 Stars
I have followed Pat Metheny and his bunch for a long time and my appreciation for them keeps growing. Antonio S?nchez might be the best "fusion" drummer I have heard (hard to say, for Weckl, Bruford and Peart, among a few others, are also superb). This record is great, especially Arena, penned by Metheny himself, with just about the pefect mix of vistuosity and feeling that creates great jazz (and music in general). My only complaint is that perhaps the two (great) sax players simply play too much, and thus create a bit of an assimetry that affects the overall balance.
Migration Poster
Migration is an album where Antonio Sanchez, one of today s most sought-after drummers, debuts as leader and calls on two contemporary jazz stars, Chick Corea and Pat Metheny, to participate. In fact, Sanchez has played in their groups for years. The album also features contributions by bassist Scott Colley, and saxmen Chris Potter and David Sanchez.Migration is jazz at a highly energetic level, but at the same time rich with expressive overtones. The drummer shows real quality as a leader, guiding his band members along personal, multicoloured, trajectory sounds and to extract the very best from them. The heart of the album is represented by four tracks performed in quartet (Did You Get It?, Challenge Within, Greddy Silent and Inner Urge), where the two sax players, both on tenors, dominate the scene. In Sand, Pat Metheny s guitar is added to the base nucleus, in an arioso and lyrical composition that he wrote expressly for this recording. Ballade is reserved for trio with Potter, who proves himself a first-rate soloist even on soprano. Also performed
in trio is the opening track of the CD, One For Antonio, a homage to the drummer written by Chick Corea. The finale is instead entrusted to Sanchez and Metheny performing the famous notes of Solar by Miles Davis: the best way to conclude an album that from the beginning to the end doesn t show any slack in taste nor decrease in tension.
