This recording session involving leaders Pandelis Karayorgis and
Mat Maneri along with their supporting cast (Tony Malaby, Michael
Formanek, and Randy Peterson -- all musicians they had both worked
with before) was put together hastily. It falls to the jazzmen's
credit that Disambiguation sounds so unforced and rehearsed, and
flows so naturally. The pianist and violist know each other well
enough to share a level of comfort that often finds improv
musicians turning lazy and remaining on previously charted ground.
If this quintet doesn't explore new, cutting-edge territories, it
sure can't be accused of laziness. Karayorgis came up with five
loose compositions: heads and sub-group sequences (a bass/piano
duet here, a trio section there, etc.). The group members made the
music their own (rather than "learned" it) and recorded it as if
they had been playing it for years. Nothing here stands out of the
ordinary: the pianist's tumbling lines, Maneri's deep viola lines,
the rhythm section playing in and out often at the same time.
Detractors of free jazz will say that this has been done before,
and so forth. But these five players do it well, more than that
they do it casually. Unpretentiously, like it is their everyday
bread and butter, they pour their hearts and souls into Karayorgis'
post-bop themes (that Monk signature again in the opening theme of
"Three Plus Three"), break down their sound into every possible
combination of players to show everything they can do, and bring it
softly "Home" in the end. All in a day's work, right?
Disambiguation is the work of professionals still thrilled by what
they do. ~ Fran‡ois Couture
