Oregon - Catania Jazz, 20 marzo 2018 - ABC
Рет қаралды 36,606
6 жыл бұрынCon oltre quarant’anni di tournée e concerti nei più prestigiosi festival mondiali e una trentina di produzioni discografiche, Oregon è nel tempo divenuta una band di culto, fra le prime ad aver mischiato sonorità occidentali e orientali creando così un sound unico e immediatamente riconoscibile.
La loro musica vive di costanti richiami alle più svariate tradizioni, da quella euro colta, al jazz, al folk americano, alle musiche etniche. Se gli ultimi dischi degli Oregon non hanno costituito dei capitoli salienti nell’evoluzione della loro rodata matrice musicale, il gruppo continua a incantare sia in studio sia dal vivo grazie alle sue peculiari atmosfere.
Oregon è dunque una pietra miliare dell’evoluzione che ha portato la musica verso un suono eterogeneo, introspettivo e meditativo la cui concezione di ritmo, arrangiamento e composizione ha fatto centinaia di proseliti in tutto il mondo.
Un occasione per ascoltare dal vivo la loro ultima fatica discografica, il 30° album "Lantern".
Formazione
Ralph Towner: chitarra, pianoforte
Paul McCandless: oboe, sax soprano
Paolino Dalla Porta: basso
Mark Walker: batteria, percussioni

Oregon isn't touring any more, due to Paul's health. This is the next-to-last show of their last tour. Which probably explains why Ralph was so fired up. He's still performing solo - but it doesn't afford him the range of expression that the band did. For those of us who've been fans since the early '70s, it's terribly sad -- but what a treat to be able to see this entire show. Many thanks for posting it.

What's up with Paul's health?
@billpardue3410 4 жыл бұрын
@@ShamanMirror Apparently there are some issues (maybe age-related?) that have left him unable to play oboe, although he still plays soprano sax, bass clarinet, etc. He's was playing some live shows in California before C19 and has streamed at least one performance with a group there--so don't count him out!

Oh, what terrible news. I didn't know this. Got to see them and meet them November 2016 here in Germany. I have been a fan since age 16, almost 30 years now... Paul will always remain one of the world's greatest melodic woodwind improvisers. Wishing him all the best with his health. Peace & blessings from Germany

I saw Ralph with John Mclaughlan at Soldiers and Sailors hall in Oakland. They were introduced as intermission act for the Gary Burton band concert. The house lights came up and, though John tried his best (on synthesized mandolin), he got up and walked off, leaving Ralph on acoustic guitar to wow a jazz savvy audience with 30 minutes of the finest acoustic work I have ever witnessed. He was totally capable of expressing his genius without a band. And no offense meant. Not a breath, not a cough, not a fart, for 30 minutes. The absolute master of his art and craft.

I don't know better guitarist then Ralph Towner. His sound is ingenious, no matter acoustic or electric guitar. And he is also great pianist. I used to listen to their music for tens of years. Note the fantastic fusion of the rennaisance and jazz music.

@@jsc1227 I have thought a lot about why they never really broke through here overall. To me America went more for a "fusion" sound like Pat Metheny and such. This music was more "accessible" for rock fans and such. Oregon and all of Solstice era and such is to me a more "chamber music" jazz ensemble. There is no doubt though of the genius of Ralph. I rate him on the level of the greatest composers in history (even guys like Bach and such). He really stands alone in the use of classical and 12 string in the jazz world.

I kept hoping they would come to upstate. Alas, they never came. But when The Mavericks and At Sleep at the Wheel play the local Jazz Fest, someone is not getting it right.

I've loved their music for many years and I also have much of their work both records and c.d.s too but I cannot say I've heard them playing such obvious reggae before !?!? GREAT MUSIC including this here it ain't easy when energy level's diminish considerably after the age of sixty SO I think this is a superb effort and it's a real privilege to see and hear it.

Oregon has been great through all of their member transitions over the years. They need to come out with Beyond Words II, a compilation of their best work from the second half of their career. And like Beyond Words (1995), they need to do new live recordings. Find a nice church apse, set up and record new live versions. (Paul was touring the first half of last year (2022) so maybe his health has returned.) This great vid is Oregon's last show from 2018. I know Towner and McCandless were touring and performing last year so there must be other reasons for their retirement, break-up, demise? Long live avant-garde, free form, improvisational jazz!

I think Paul's in good general health (or haven't heard otherwise). I just think that the oboe is out of the picture--he's pretty much sax and bass clarinet, which is still good.

I was enjoying this concert until they started playing outside music at about an hour into the show. Sorry, I can’t listen to music that tries to be repellent. It’s disappointing to hear this from such a great band I’ve loved so long. (I tried ages ago to listen to this kind of stuff but quit.)

@user-ev2wj7tk9n 3 жыл бұрын
the percussion are too loud, that's all. but it's a concert, so the balance isn't always perfect. also, the sound has changed from their '70s heydays, it's more jazzy (i think at least). the ethnic elements pretty much disappeared together with walcott.

@aeropilot4419 3 жыл бұрын
@Jason Stringer I think the truth lies between yours and Alan’s comments … age has certainly taken its toll with both Ralph and Paul, no doubt … sadly, the loss of Colin was almost too much to bear if you were a fan of the early group (as I was) but Trilok made the transition palatable, and made the music change into a more forceful expression for the entire group. Mark is neither here nor there for me in this context, tho I like his drumming on Paul’s excellent solo release, Premonition. I feel the retirement of Glen was the final straw, however … the breaking of the thread that led back to the quirkiness of the younger days was a noticeable change in energy. Kudos to them, tho, still playing whenever they can 🙌🏼
