 SIRONE'S CONCORD (USA/D) "Angel" heisst die grosse Liebe des 1940 geborenen, weltmusikalischen Neuerers Sirone, der Gruender des Revolutionary Ensemble, der mit Albert Ayler, Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Sun Ra, Cecil Taylor und einer nahezu unendlichen Liste von Musikern Bands und Buehnen teilte. "Angel" ist ein breitkoerpriger Kontrabass, mit dem Sirone seine Klangexpeditionen durchfuehrt. Sein Herz haengt derzeit an seinem neuen Ensemble "Concord", bestehend aus dem amerikanischen Tenorsaxophonisten Ben Abarbanel-Wolff, dem expressiven Geiger Ulli Bartel und dem Avantgarde-Schlagzeuger Maurice de Martin. Mit "Concord" folgt Sirone dem Spirit des amerikanischen Free Jazz im Verbund mit neuen Elementen aus der Tradition europaeischer Improvisation. Sirone - Kontrabass (USA) Ein exzellenter Bassist, Innovator und unterbewerteter Komponist. Sirone war Mitbegruender des grossartigen "Revolutionary Ensemble" und arbeitete mit vielen anderen Groessen und Gruppen des Free Jazz. Sein auffallender Sound und sein entschlossenes Spiel ergaenzten sich meisterhaft bei den Aufnahmen und Konzerten mit Leroy Jenkins und Jerome Cooper. In Atlanta arbeitete Sirone in den spaeten Fuenfzigern und zu Beginn der sechziger Jahre zusammen mit George Adams in der Band "The Group". Mitte der Sechziger zog Sirone nach New York, wo er gemeinsam mit Dave Burrell das "Untraditional Jazz Improvisational Team" formierte und schnell zu einem gefragten Sideman avancierte. Sieben Jahre lang war Sirone ein Element der "Cecil Taylor Unit". In den achtziger Jahren rief er, zusammen mit Adams, Rashied Ali und James 'Blood' Ulmer, die All-Star Formation "Phalanx" ins Leben. Er spielte auf Aufnahmen und Konzerten mit Albert Ayler, Billy Bang, Gato Barbieri, Anthony Braxton, Marion Brown, Dennis Charles, Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Andrew Cyrille, Walt Dickerson, Bill Dixon, Charles Gayle, Milford Graves, Charlie Haden, Billy Higgins, Dave Holland, Noah Howard, Ronald Shannon Jackson, Sheila Jordan, Jimmy Lyons, Bennie Maupin, Jackie McLean, Don Moye, Sunny Murray, James Newton, Enrico Rava, Dewey Redman, Rosswell Rudd, Pharoah Sanders, Shankar, Sonny Sharrock, Archie Shepp, Sun Ra, Leon Thomas, Clifford Thornton und Carlos Ward, um nur einige zu nennen. Seit knapp einem Jahrzehnt lebt er in Berlin, realisiert zusammen mit seiner Frau, der Schauspielerin Veronika Nowag-Jones, Film- und Theaterprojekte, engagiert sich in Formationen mit europaeischen Improvisatoren und gibt hierbei seinen einmaligen Erfahrungsschatz und wichtige musikalische Impulse an seine juengeren Kollegen weiter. "Der Wilbur Ware des avantgardistischen Jazz, der mit allen Free-Innovatoren, ..., gearbeitet hat, ist einer seiner kommunikativsten Spieler. Mit seinem maechtigen Ton spiegelt er zwar Einfluesse von Jimmy Blanton über Charles Mingus bis Reggie Workman wieder, foerdert aber vor allem Ideen aus der eigenen Phantasie zutage." - rororo Jazz-Lexikon Ben Abarbanel-Wolff - Tenorsaxophon (USA) Der aus Washington D.C. stammende Tenorsaxophonist studierte Jazz und Improvisation mit Reggie Workman, Mathew Shipp, Roscoe Mitchell, Charles Gayle, Ellery Eskelin und Rob Brown. Er nahm für das renommierte Label der Knitting Factory CDs auf und arbeitete 1999 - 2001 intensiv mit dem Meisterschlagzeuger und Heiler Milford Graves zusammen. Seit 2001 ist er in Berlin ansaessig und konzertiert regelmaessig mit dem "Berlin Jazz Composers Ensemble", sowie weiteren wichtigen Vertretern der jungen kreativen Szene. Als Sideman und als Leader tourte er in Deutschland, Korea, Polen, Rumaenien, Serbien, Ungarn und den USA. Ulli Bartel - Geige (D) Ulli Bartel ist einer der herausragenden Jazzgeiger Europas. Er studierte am Bostoner "Berklee College of Music", errang den 1. Preis der "European Jazz Violin Competition" und hat sich als Komponist und musikalischer Leiter für Theater- und Filmmusikproduktionen in Wien, Muenchen und Berlin einen ausserordentlich guten Namen geschaffen. Neben seiner Zusammenarbeit mit George Cables, Jimmy Cobb, Billy Elgart, Allan Praskin und Jacky Terrasson beschaeftigt er sich auch intensiv mit traditioneller kurdischer sowie Roma Folklore und spielt mit einigen wichtigen Interpreten dieser Kulturen. Maurice de Martin - Schlagzeug (D) Mit 21 Jahren veroeffentlichte de Martin seine Debut CD mit der deutschen Avantgarde Band "Brother Virus" bei Enja und lebte danach von 1991 - 1995 in New York. Er hat dort neben Schlagzeugstudien bei Joey Baron und Dennis Charles und einem privaten Kompositionsstudium bei Giya Kancheli in der "Downtown Avantgarde Scene" um die Knitting Factory mit einigen der bedeutendsten Vertreter der improvisierten Musik zusammengearbeitet (Tim Berne, Kermit Driscol, Bern Nix, Herb Robertson, Gary Thomas). Zu hoeren ist er bei zahlreichen Festivals in Europa und den USA mit eigenen Formationen (u.a. Knitting Factory "What's Jazz", Leverkusen, Koeln Stadtgarten, Expo 2000, Nates) sowie auf mehr als 15 international veroeffentlichten CD-Produktionen und Aufnahmen für Theater, Tanz und Film. SIRONE'S CONCORD (USA/Germany) Angel is the great love of the musical innovator Sirone, born in 1940 in Atlanta, Georgia. The co-founder of the Revolutionary Ensemble, he has shared bands and stages with Albert Ayler, Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Sun Ra and Cecil Taylor, among others. Angel is the double-bass, with whom Sirone undertakes his expeditions in sound. With his new ensemble, consisting of the American tenor saxophonist Ben Abarbanel-Wolff, the expressive violinist Ulli Bartel and the Berlin avant-garde drummer Maurice de Martin, Sirone follows in the spirit of American free jazz, as well as mixing in new elements from European free music, which reflect the make-up of this international quartet. Sirone - bass (USA) An excellent bass player and underrated composer, Sirone was co-founder of "The Revolutionary Ensemble" in the 1970's and has worked with many other bandleaders and groups. When he moved to New York in 1964, he quickly became one of the most respected bass players in the new jazz world. Together with pianist Dave Burell, he formed the "Untraditional Jazz Improvisational Team". He was a member of the "Cecil Taylor Unit" for seven years in the 1970's. In the 1980's he was co-founder of the all-star band "Phalanx" with George Adams, Rashied Ali and James 'Blood' Ulmer. Sirone has recorded and performed with: Albert Ayler, Billy Bang, Gato Barbieri, Anthony Braxton, Marion Brown, Denis Charles, Don Cherry, Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Andrew Cyrille, Walt Dickerson, Bill Dixon, Charles Gayle, Milford Graves, Charlie Haden, Billy Higgins, Dave Holland, Noah Howard, Ronald Shannon Jackson, Sheila Jordan, Jimmy Lyons, Bennie Maupin, Don Moye, Sunny Murray, James Newton, Enrico Rava, Dewey Redman, Roswell Rudd, Pharoah Sanders, Shankar, Sonny Sharrock, Archie Shepp, Sun Ra, Leon Thomas, Clifford Thornton and Carlos Ward. At the height of the free jazz movement, Sirone played with almost every major personality of this genre. Sirone has been living in Berlin for more than 10 years, where he realizes film- and theatre-based projects together with his wife, actress Veronika Nowag-Jones. He keeps performing with European improvisational musicians, handing over his unique know-how as well as important musical inspirations to his younger colleagues. Martin Kunzler writes in the "rororo Jazz Lexikon" (Germany's leading jazz encyclopedia): "The Wilbur Ware of avant-garde jazz who has been working with all free innovators, ..., is one of its most communicative players. With his huge sound he reflects influences from Jimmy Blanton to Charles Mingus and Reggie Workman, but he unearths ideas out of his own imagination above all." Ben Abarbanel-Wolff - tenor saxophone (USA) The tenor saxophonist Ben Abarbanel-Wolff, originally from Washington D.C., studied jazz and improvisation under Reggie Workman, Roscoe Mitchell, Mathew Shipp, Charles Gayle, Rob Brown and Ellery Eskelin. He recorded on the Knitting Factory label and worked intensively with master drummer and healer Milford Graves from 1999 to 2001. Berlin-based since 2001, he performs on a regularly with the "Berlin Jazz Composers Ensemble", as well as other formations out of Berlin's active young creative scene. As sideman and as leader he has toured Germany, Hungary, Korea, Poland, Romania, Serbia and the USA. Ulli Bartel - violin (Germany) Ulli Bartel is one of Europe's outstanding jazz violinists. He studied at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, finished first at the "European Jazz Violin Competition" and has achieved an excellent reputation as composer and director of music for theatre and film productions in Vienna, Munich and Berlin. He has peformed with George Cables, Jimmy Cobb, Billy Elgart, Allan Praskin and Jacky Terrasson. He is also involved in traditional Kurdish and Roma folk music, playing together with some of the major performers of these cultural styles.
