Death and the flower ; Backhand (2015)/ Keith Jarrett & Dewey Redman & Charlie Haden & Paul Motian

""Death And The Flower" by the Keith Jarrett Quintet (with the leader on piano, soprano and flute, tenor-saxophonist Dewey Redman, bassist Charlie Haden, drummer Paul Motian and percussionist Guilherme Franco) contains three of Jarrett's originals. The main selection, the 21-minute title track, develops logically from atmospheric sounds to intense group improvising and back again. Recorded at the same sessions as "Death And The Flower", "Backhand" features pianist Keith Jarrett's same exciting but underrated American group of the 1970s. The group (with Jarrett occasionally switching to flute and Redman to the bizarre-sounding musette) is in typically exploratory, yet often melodic form on lengthy renditions of four of Jarrett's inside/outside originals."
