Oblique I is the highly anticipated new release from drummer Tyshawn Sorey, delivering what his fans have long been seeking: an album that combines his virtuosic playing with his compositional mastery. On each of his two prior releases as a leader, he has almost willfully played down his drumming. Heavily influenced by composer Morton Feldman, Sorey often lays out or plays in only the most minimalist fashion. Oblique I is a completely different story. Made up of ten pieces chosen from a collection he calls “41 Compositions,” the CD shows off his dynamic playing in a creatively varied program that features musicians with whom he has collaborated for years—guitarist Todd Neufeld, alto saxophonist Loren Stillman, keyboardist John Escreet, and bassist Chris Tordini.
“Tyshawn Sorey plays the drums with an almost brutish physicality, but also with an impressive sense of scale and equipoise.” — New York Times
“You just knew that when Sorey finally uncorked a disc, it would be a big deal.” — Time Out New York
“The best jazz drummer in New York. A one-man natural disaster. Be prepared for anything.” — Village Voice |
