{"product_id":"crispell-marilyn-vignettes-0602517452770","title":"Vignettes","description":"'Vignettes' is the first ECM solo album from highly regarded American pianist Marilyn Crispell and an important addition to the ranks of classic solo piano discs on the label including landmark jazz recordings by Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea and Paul Bley. This poetic, lyrical and intimate album - a remarkably pure musical journey - features original compositions by Crispell, free playing and pieces by friends Jayna Nelson and Arve Henriksen. Marilyn Crispell (born 1947 in Philadelphia) played exclusively classical music until she was 28, when exposure to John Coltrane's 'A Love Supreme' changed her musical priorities forever. She quickly became one of the most sought after improvising pianists in new jazz with a strongly physical style influenced by the rhythmic propulsion of the music of Cecil Taylor and McCoy Tyner and by the ballad stylings of Paul Bley and Keith Jarrett. Her 15-year membership of the Anthony Braxton Quartet (1978-93), confirmed her international standing, as did leader recordings. By 1990 she was also working with European improvisers; her encounters with Scandinavian players in particular made her aware of other 'jazz' sensibilities. Crispell made her ECM debut in 1996 with 'Nothing ever was, anyway', an acclaimed double album of Annette Peacock's music. It was followed by two more trio discs - 'Amaryllis', with material by Crispell, Gary Peacock and Paul Motian and 'Storyteller' which emphasized Motian's songwriting. Most recently she appeared on Anders Jormin's song cycle 'In winds, in light', alongside singer Lena Willemark. Such recent affiliations are celebrated on the track \"Sweden\".","brand":"NRW Vertrieb \/ Wismar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53696050954582,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/5829\/5382\/files\/product_image_0602517452770_1.jpg?v=1778861914","url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/crispell-marilyn-vignettes-0602517452770","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
