比利．哈特 Billy Hart: All Our Reasons (CD) 【ECM】

First ECM recording of a quartet formed in 2003. Originally billed as the Ethan Iverson-Mark Turner Quartet, it soon became the Billy HartQuartet, andunder this name has played shows topacked houseseach year in New York City. The group's first album for hard-bop label High Note in 2005 figured on many critics' best-of-the year list. Since then, the ensemble's music has gotten more free and spacious, a sensibility that aligns perfectly with ECM. While drummer Hart's swinging beat and delicate cymbal tracery have previously been heard on the label behind Charles Lloyd and Bennie Maupin, and tenorist Mark Turner has appeared on acclaimed recording with the Fly Trio and Enrico Rava, “All Our Reasons” is a label debut for Bad Plus pianist Ethan Iverson and bassist Ben Street. Hart, Iverson and Turner all contribute material, which includes modern blues, a Coltrane tribute and an Iverson-penned homage to Paul Bley, the wonderfully-titled “Nostalgia for the Impossible”.
