Take the Coltrane

in music •  6 years ago 

John Coltrane (tenor sax), Duke Ellington (piano), Jimmy Garrison (bass) and Elvin Jones (drums). From the album Duke Ellington & John Coltrane (1963).

Coltrane was a very demanding person with himself. In fact, he did not stop until he found his perfect quartet. After trying with Steve Davis and Reggie Workman on the double bass, he found Jimmy Garrison, who replaced Workman. Garrison learned to play the double bass in Miami and Philadelphia, where jazz was at its best. Although he is best known for being part of Coltrane's quartet, with whom he remained until his death in 1967, he also played with other great saxophonists.

From the beginning, the melody is cheerful, and even fun. It is repeated to continue encouraging the listener. Ellington begins his solo, but quickly enters Coltrane issuing notes in all directions in quick time. You can tell he's having a good time. His chorus follow and he continues to expand his optimism. Then Garrison intervenes, showing his good humor with the double bass. Coltrane returns confirming his desire to live. Evething ends up re-exposing the subject with a long ending.

Siempre me ha llamado la atencion ese tipo de música es algo como relajante pero a la vez activa. Da mucho ambiente en donde suene.
