It is difficult to imagine two greater opposites. On the one hand, Jazz, the rough companion who made ends meet in the big cities of the 20th century. On the other, Emily Dickinson, the quiet poet from a Calvinist family, who spent all of her life in the rural community of Amherst, Massachusetts. When Dickinson died at the age of 56 in 1886, jazz had not been born yet. It was no more than a dark premonition, lingering in the dank swamps of the Mississippi delta.
Do they go together? Without doubt. But to achieve this union requires a unique talent. Great musicianship. A feel for words, images, and sounds. It requires the ability to invent tunes that linger in the ear and move the heart. Only then can we fully appreciate the brittle, secretive art of Emily Dickinson.
The intense interplay within her trio with Marc Muellbauer on bass and Heinrich Köbberling on drums, is one of Hülsmann’s most important musical constants. The new partner is the singer Roger Cicero, son of the prematurely deceased pianist Eugen Cicero. It’s a new partnership that goes against the grain. Both Hülsmann’s previous recordings were successful collaborations with female vocalists, Rebekka Bakken and Anna Lauvergnac. This time she uses a man to interpret the verses of a woman.
Julia Hülsmann has picked ten poems from the enormously rich body of Dickinson’s work for "Good Morning Midnight". Her music intuitively absorbs what is hinted at in the verses. Whether it is the careful probing of the piano solo in "I Cannot See", the insistent 1/8th notes which illustrate the urgency of "Tell Her", or the calm flow that carries the ballad "My River". An unexpected dimension is opened by the subtle electronica provided by Tilman Ehrhorn. A new colour in Julia Hülsmann’s work, as are the warm horn arrangements on "Will There Really Be a Morning" and "Riverman", that are reminiscent of Gil Evans. They are by Hülsmann’s bassist and partner Marc Muellbauer. It was his suggestion to add Nick Drake’s enigmatic song as the only cover on the CD. It fits the conception perfectly.
The tension between art and pop, between American poems from the 19th century and European contemporary jazz resolves into a satisfying whole on this CD. "Good Morning Midnight". The sun rises from the darkest night.
