When it comes seeing how adventurous a person is, John Coltrane's late period is one of the things that separates the men from the boys and the women from the girls. From 1965 until his death in 1967, Trane offered the most atonal of free jazz-and his music became so blistering that even some of his most ardent admirers shy away from his late period. But what frightens others is a challenge that Dave Liebman accepts with this CD, which finds the underexposed soprano saxman interpreting the music from Trane's 1965 experiment Meditations.
Very much a risk-taker, Liebman is someone who has often been willing to jump into a variety of challenging situations. By refusing to play it safe and crawl into a comfort zone, he's fallen flat on his face on occasion. But this time, he came out on top. The pieces fall into place nicely for Liebman, who remains faithful to the spirit of this "outside" music but lets his own charm work its magic. Dense, amelodic and abrasive, this isn't easy music to get into. But for those brave enough to make the journey, this spiritual effort reveals more and more of its power and richness with each listen.

Cuando se trata de ver cuán aventurera es una persona, el período tardío de John Coltrane es una de las cosas que separa a los hombres de los niños y a las mujeres de las niñas. Desde 1965 hasta su muerte en 1967, Trane ofreció el free jazz más atonal,y su música se volvió tan abrasadora que incluso algunos de sus admiradores más ardientes se alejan de su último período. Pero lo que asusta a los demás es un desafío que Dave Liebman acepta con este CD, que encuentra al saxofonista soprano subexpuesto interpretando la música del experimento Meditations de Trane de 1965.
Muy arriesgado, Liebman es alguien que a menudo ha estado dispuesto a saltar a una variedad de situaciones desafiantes. Al negarse a ir a lo seguro y arrastrarse a una zona de confort, en ocasiones se ha caído de bruces. Pero esta vez, llegó a la cima. Las piezas encajan muy bien para Liebman, que permanece fiel al espíritu de esta música "externa" pero deja que su propio encanto haga su magia. Densa, amelódica y abrasiva, esta no es una música fácil de entender. Pero para aquellos lo suficientemente valientes como para hacer el viaje, este esfuerzo espiritual revela más y más de su poder y riqueza con cada escucha.
