Ocean Wave by Jack Dejohnette & Foday Musa Suso

Artist Biography For Jack Dejohnette & Foday Musa Suso

Jack DeJohnetteâ€s Debut Release For His New Golden Beams Label Music From The Hearts Of The Masters Pairs The Legendary Drummer With Internationally Renowned Kora Player Percussionist And Griot Foday Musa Suso For A Transporting Duet Which Encases The Listener In An Intricately Designed And Masterfully Executed World Of Sound. "As A Jazz Drummer DeJohnette Needs No Introduction. His Command Over The Drum Kit Has Set Him Apart Since The Earliest Stages Of His Career And His Constant Innovations As Part Of The Keith Jarrett Trio Secured His Place In Jazz History Long Ago. With Music From The Hearts Of The Masters DeJohnette Departs From The Traditional Jazz Idiom Almost Completely To Present A Series Of Compositions Blending Musical Styles And Traditions From Around The Globe With A Particular Focus On The Gambian Tradition Mastered By Suso. Instead Of Flooring The Listener With Bravura Displays These Two Virtuoso Musicians Take The Less Obvious Route Combining Their Voices Into An Ego-Less Fluid Whole That Invites The Listener Into The Stunning Complexity Of Their Music. Taking Full Advantage Of The Notoriously Challenging Kora—a 21-String Harp-Lute—Suso Weaves An Intricate Melodic And Harmonic Web Which Dejohnette Compliments Perfectly With His Distinctively Melodic Style And Unerring Rhythmic Sense. A Work Of Rare Spiritual And Musical Clarity Music From The Hearts Of The Masters Possesses A Quiet Strength Which Grounds Susoâ€s Often Abstract Sometimes Esoteric Excursions To Create A Uniquely Contemplative—almost Meditative—experience.
