Charles Lloyd • Triosː Chapel

As a sound seeker, Lloyd’s restless creativity has perhaps found no greater manifestation than on his latest masterwork, an expansive project that encompasses three albums with an overarching theme, each presenting him in a different trio setting—a Trio of Trios. The first album, Trios: Chapel, features guitarist Bill Frisell and bassist Thomas Morgan.

Charles Lloyd has long been a free spirit, master musician, and visionary. For more than six decades the legendary saxophonist and composer has loomed large over the music world, and at 84 years old he remains at the height of his powers and as prolific as ever. Early on Lloyd saw how placing the improvised solo in interesting and original contexts could provoke greater freedom of expression and inspire creativity, and throughout his remarkable career he has searched for alternative ways to frame his improvisational skills.

Como buscador de sonidos, la inquieta creatividad de Lloyd quizá no haya encontrado mayor manifestación que en su última obra maestra, un proyecto expansivo que abarca tres álbumes con un tema general, cada uno de los cuales le presenta en un entorno de trío diferente: un trío de tríos. El primer álbum, Trios: Chapel, cuenta con el guitarrista Bill Frisell y el bajista Thomas Morgan.

Charles Lloyd ha sido durante mucho tiempo un espíritu libre, un músico maestro y un visionario. Durante más de seis décadas, el legendario saxofonista y compositor ha dominado el mundo de la música, y a sus 84 años sigue estando en la cima de sus poderes y es tan prolífico como siempre. Desde el principio, Lloyd vio cómo colocar el solo improvisado en contextos interesantes y originales podía provocar una mayor libertad de expresión e inspirar la creatividad, y a lo largo de su notable carrera ha buscado formas alternativas de enmarcar sus habilidades de improvisación.
