World of Jazz 794

This playlist explores the intersection of narrative composition and global rhythmic traditions, anchored by the rich textures of modern jazz. The journey begins with the structured, cinematic layers of Miho Hazama and Jacques Kuba Séguin’s olfactory-inspired trilogy, before shifting into the vibrant Afro-Cuban and Mambo energies of Arturo Sandoval and Tumbao Bravo. Throughout the selection, the mood oscillates between the intimate, melancholic beauty of Elsa Nilsson and Norma Winstone and the rhythmic complexity of Adam Rudolph and Onilu. It culminates in a definitive nod to the avant-garde, bridging the gap between Doug MacDonald’s hard-bop tributes and the seminal, electric fusion of Miles Davis’s “Great Expectations.” PLAYLIST Miho Hazama “The Pioneer’s Quest” from Frames (Edition Records) 00:00  Arturo Sandoval “With The People” from Sangú (TM Records) 06:59  Elsa Nilsson Band Of Pulses “Mourning For Two” from Liminal (Adhyâropa Records) 09:48 Tumbao Bravo with Paul Vornhagen “Chan’s Song” from Joy of The Mambo (Global Pulse Records) 16:10  Jacques Kuba Séguin “Éphémère” from La Triologie Des Odeurs : Parfum No. 1 (Odd Sound) 21:03 Jacques Kuba Séguin “Paysage pour Muniak” from La Triologie Des Odeurs : Parfum No. 2 (Odd Sound) 23:00  Jacques Kuba Séguin “How We Start Again” from La Triologie Des Odeurs : Parfum No. 3 (Odd Sound) 33:50 Ben Wolfe “If Only” from Any Time After Now (Resident Arts Records) 40:47 Dave Douglas “Oclupaca” from Transcend (Greenleaf) 43:38 Adam Rudolph “Inception” from Sunrise (Meta Records) 48:11 Alexis Martin Ensemble “Pimbina” from Les pôles Volume 1 (Les Productions Alexis Martin Inc.) 52:38 Doug MacDonald “Captain Bacardi” from Tribute To South Central (Dmac Music) 55:57  Your Brother’s Keeper & Gary Bartz “Cauldron” from Where Rivers Meet (Brownswood Recordings) 1:00:16 Onilu “Holocene Serene” from Jakuta’s Dance (577 Records) 1:06:01  SoSaLa “Leila” from 1987 - Hajime (DooBeeDoo Records) 1:12:24 Mick Goodrick, Fred Hersch “Five Excursions” from Feebles, Fables and Ferns (ECM Records) 1:17:18 Kemuel Roig “The Peacocks” from Both Sides Now (Life In Music) 1:26:00 Norma Winstone & Steve Gray with the NDR Symphony Orchestra “A Timeless Place” from A Timeless Place (Enodoc Records) 1:35:12  Alejandro Falcón “Bolera Para Brenda” from Falcón in Blue (Dot Time Records) 1:39:41   Miles Davis “Great Expectations” ftom The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions (Columbia) 1:46:37
