Hit: 5 Stars
There has always been a place for delicacy in music. In fact delicacy is something music gets across better than many other mediums. Now it need no longer be simply remote or soto voce or reverb laden. The profound strides in digital recording are finally capable of delivering a delicacy with presence, with force, specificity and nearness. And the use to which Henriksen puts delicacy in this recording makes it the principal organizational attribute and compositional technique. Free of false or real cadence, the pieces provide access to a new sort of auditory experience, one of apprehending rather than merely comprehending.
There are many moments within "Cartography" that choose to intimate rather than demarcate an untouchable and immersive music. For anyone who managed to browse through Eno's "Oblique Strategies" some decades ago, a card I often drew (paraphrasing now) read "Imagine the music as a series of disconnected events". This is difficult to do while still achieving enough coherence to be perceptible as music to the listener. Yet here, Henriksen accomplishes something very much implied rather than stated, and does so without disorienting or disconnecting completely from structure. And that is perhaps the single most compelling strength of this particular work: it insistently shifts the perception of the listener to an intricate quiet issuing from the reassuring envelopes of commanding presence.
Cartography Poster
A co-leader of the popular Norwegian trio Supersilent, Henriksen's singular trumpet-sound has made him a much sought-after session player. Cartography surrounds his uniquely lyrical trumpet with a shifting cast of characters whose experience spans jazz, classical music, ambient music, remix culture and more. Produced by shapers of soundscapes Jan Bang and Erik Honoré, the album features guests including pop singer/composer David Sylvian (reading two of his poems), Eivind Aarset, Audun Kleive and the voices of Trio Medieaval, who all provide a changing terrain over which Henriksen's trumpet glides and soars. Cartography: the art of drawing maps. The album can be considered a map of moods, a range of changing landscapes for Henriksen to explore. Very "visual" music - like soundtracks for unmade films - with emphasis on melody and atmosphere.International Music CDs
