Editorial Reviews
From Amazon.com
Trumpeter Dave Douglas works at a tireless pace, releasing a steady stream of excellent solo albums, contributing to John Zorn's Masada, and appearing as a featured soloist on scores of diverse projects. On Charms of the Night Sky, Douglas steps back for an album of restful meditations on the waltzes, polkas, klezmer, and café music of Europe. Playing without a drummer, Douglas leans his breathy horn against the solid foundation of bassist Greg Cohen and trades austere lines with Mark Feldman's violin while the accordion (!) of Guy Klucevsek sets the mood. These beautiful songs, duets, and tone poems are elegantly paced and played with an understated authority that is wistful, romantic, and full of grace. Packaged and recorded with Winter & Winter's unrivaled sophistication and attention to detail, Charms of the Night Sky is one of Dave Douglas's finest moments. --S. Duda
Chronique amazon.fr
Une sonorité étrange, envoûtante, avec des prolongations aigres et aiguës, des accents de Kenny Wheeler : voici Dave Douglas, trompettiste inspiré par des romances incongrues, accompagné ici par une rythmique peu usitée (accordéon, violon, basse). La découverte des sons se fait à chaque note, posée, accrochée, enlevée, envolée. Ce disque a le charme d'un long discours construit de très belles phrases. Il y a du cirque et des roulottes d'Europe centrale dans l'inspiration de Dave Douglas, une histoire de saltimbanque triste et amoureux, un vagabondage de sons nocturnes dans lesquels on perçoit des accents de Nino Rota. --Jean-Michel Schlosser
