Active for nearly three decades, Kenny Werner has earned a reputation as one of the most inventive pianists and composers in jazz. With Lawn Chair Society, he joins the illustrious roster of Blue Note Records and unveils the most thrilling and unorthodox statement of his career thus far. He is joined by some of the best players in the world- Dave Douglas, in a rare sideman appearance, on trumpet and cornet; Chris Potter on tenor sax and bass clarinet; Scott Colley on bass; and Brian Blade on drums. With the aide of producer Lenny Pickett, Werner and the band conjure a subtle blend of acoustic and electronic elements. The results are melodically rich, sonically futuristic, offhandedly virtuosic, and politically resonant.
A typically open-eared and accomplished New York-based pianist/composer, Kenny Werner has assembled a top-class band (trumpeter Dave Douglas, reedsman Chris Potter, bassist Scott Colley and drummer Brian Blade) for this wide-ranging, intriguing recording, which also features a couple of electronically based pieces from producer Lenny Picket.
Werner's own compositions range from pleasantly jerky and nervy themes explored by garrulous horns over a rattling rhythm section ('New Amsterdam') to the tender, almost hymnic 'Uncovered Heart', the softly crooned horns on which embellish a plangent melody that occasionally brings Abdullah Ibrahim to mind, and other meditative pieces clearly dedicated ° as is the entire album ° to Werner's late daughter.
What chiefly impresses, though, is the poise and elegance with which the band approaches the varied textures and tempos woven artfully into Werner's music, and the restrained power and imagination that infuse their interpretations of it ° a classy recording from a great band. http://www.vortexjazz.co.uk
