"This CD was composed by Grzegorz Pleszynski using recordings he made of my voice reading texts from personal journals in Berlin. The background music was created afterwards by Pleszynski and Mazzoli in a sound studio in Bydgoszcz, There were no second takes and I had so say in their improvisations or their choice of the raw material." . . . . . . . . .

Noel / Pleszynski / Mazzoll – “Green”

This is a wonderful avant-garde recording created by the British (resident in Berlin) artist Ann Noel, who reads texts from her journals, with Polish avant-gardist Grzegorz Pleszynski, who plays plastic tube trumpets and Polish Jazz clarinetist Jerzy Mazzoll who plays the bass clarinet. The album present nine collages of voice and improvised music.

The entire project could be looked upon as an extension of the Jazz & Poetry idiom, with the liberties and lack of formality typical of the avant-garde approach. It is neither spoken word not music, but an amalgam of the two, mostly spontaneous and meaningful in the spur of the moment, but also relevant in retrospect, at least to some listeners.

Considering the limited possibilities intrinsically embedded in the "lineup" creating this music, the result is way beyond all expectations. Whether treated at the detailed level, as three separate ingredients or as an amalgam of expressions, the result is communicative and striking, provided the listeners are open-minded and artistically liberal enough.

For all those people who repeatedly ask "why do we need all that avant-garde nonsense", my answer, as usual, is that without avant-garde (in Art / Science or any other activity involving the brain) the reverse process humanity is going through (i.e. from man to ape) would be even faster than it is today.

With that in mind, this is definitely something worth investigating, for listeners who did not lost yet the capacity to listen and participate…
