about

John Butcher is one of the leading sax players on the free improvisation scene. Rhodri Davies transcends conventional ideas about the harp--an instrument rarely associated with improvised music--in his wide-ranging projects. The two British musicians have worked together in a variety of contexts since 1997 and gave their first duo concert in 2000. As a duo they toured the UK and the U.S. in 2002, and Japan in 2004. In their performances they draw upon extended and unique playing methods mastered over the course of their careers, leaving far behind the imagined limits of their respective instruments. "Carliol" contains 7 tracks studio-recorded between August 2007 and April 2009. With its multi-hued timbres and textures, sonic beauty, conceptual freedom, experimental spirit and sophisticated structure, this album dazzles on many levels. While the 2001 album "Vortices & Angels" (on the UK label Emanem) includes duo tracks by these two artists as well by Butcher and Derek Bailey, "Carliol" is the first all Butcher/Davies duo album to be released since the start of their duo collaboration.

現在のフリー・インプリヴィゼーション・シーンにおいて、最高のサックス奏者と言って過言ではない英国のジョン・ブッチャーと、ハープという即興演奏では馴染みのない楽器を使いながら、従来のハープの概念を超えた演奏で様々なプロジェクトを活発に展開する英国のロードリ・デイヴィス。ふたりは2000年に初めてデュオ・コンサートを開き、その後も断続的にデュオ活動を続け、2004年には日本ツアーもおこなっている。お互い、これまでのキャリアを通して身につけてきた拡張 / 特殊奏法を駆使しておこなわれる演奏は通常のサックスとハープの共演から想像できる枠をはるかに超えており、本作（2007年8月〜2009年4月スタジオ録音の全7曲収録）は多彩な音色、テキスチャー、音響的美しさ、自由な発想、実験性、高度な構成力、あらゆる面で聴く者を圧倒する素晴らしい内容となっている。なお、ふたりのデュオ演奏と、ブッチャーとデレク・ベイリーのデュオ演奏の両方を収録したCD『Vortices & Angels』が2001年に英国Emanemレーベルから発売されているが、ブッチャーとデイヴィスのデュオ演奏だけを収録したフル・アルバムのリリースは、これが初めてとなる。
